+Freezing VNC screen on some the UEFI framebuffer applications
+
+Hi folks!
+
+I use TianCore (UEFI) formware on the qemu (master version last commit a6e0344).
+When kernel/linux is start, it using UEFI Framebuffer. Then I run UEFI application (which writes directly to the framebuffer) my VNS screen is freezing. Then I restart vnclient I see only one frame.
+
+When I run application, I getting in the file hw/display/vga.c on function 'vga_ioport_write' some commands, it change "s->ar_index" from 0x20 -> 0x10 
+
+In the function vga_update_display:
+1751         if (!(s->ar_index & 0x20)) {
+1752             graphic_mode = GMODE_BLANK;
+1753         } else {
+
+And I got GMODE_BLANK mode. If I patch it:
+1751         if (0) {
+
+my VNC not freezing.
+
+From "Hardware Level VGA and SVGA Video Programming Information Page" I saw, what ar_index is 0x3C0 (Attribute Controller Data Write Register), 0x20(5-bit) is PAS -- Palette Address Source
+
+If there is a output via the UEFI framebuffer, does the difference have a PAS or not? Why do we need to pause the output if the PAS is exposed? Especially when the application outputs via framebuffer.
