Description
The pciid of the graphics card is still branded to Innotek GmbH while i.e. the BIOS bootup screen is not in the latest 2.1.2 release. This is a bit misleading - is this really intended?

This is just a matter of the PCI ID. We didn't change it yet for several reasons. One reason is that a Windows guest might complain / ask for re-activation if the PCI ID of the graphics card changes. Of course we will change this in the future (using a proper hardware version mechanism).

I agree with Frank that PCI IDs should not be changed on every acquisition; Otherwise we end up change again for Oracle.
Please close as WONTFIX

Well, we will update these PCI IDs eventually so I will leave this bug open. But yes, still unknown when this will happen.
