Shared libraries (like Netscape plugins) are a different matter: they need to 
interface intimately with the native code - you can't run part of an app. in 
QEmu.

Last time this came up, somebody suggested that you might be OK with x86 
Mozilla, with the x86 flash plugin, all under QEmu.  I've not tried this, 
YMMV ;-)

HTH,
Mark

How to stop Windows 2K?

Hello,

I've managed to install Win2K as a guest OS (the host being Linux Fedora 
Core 3) - the
install is OK, and in the end I shutdown Win2K, then I switched to the 
Qemu (0.6.1) monitor and
typed "quit".... and then, rebooting from the hard-disk image (qcow 
format) I have "Err. lecture disque"
(error reading disk - in French). Is there something that could be done? 
(rebooting again from
the CD-ROM then trying to recover the installation does not seem to work).

BTW how could I use the accelerated module? I have compiled it, I have 
created the device
/dev/kqemu .... but it seems that nobody uses it! Even when I load the 
kqemu.ko by hand it seems
that no application uses it (and Qemu is as slow as when not loading the 
module)!

Regards,

Marian Ion

I've tried putting a dhcp server on the host OS running in the tun0
device and trying dhclient on dragonfly, but cannot tell if its ed0
device problems or me being stupid...

tcpdump tells me this:
tun0 is on host machine 10.0.0.254, and dhcpd.conf is configured for
10.0.0.5-10.

1.b - when using qemu with -user-net the error doesn't occurr..

2 - how should one set-up a lan between the host OS (linux) and the
guest OS in qemu (dragonflyBSD) ?

I cannot send the dmesg or any other dragonfly info since I can't
access it besides the console, and I cannot copy&paste it.

TIA.

Running DragonFlyBSD on qemu, network device problems.

Hi there,

I'm running dragonflyBSD on a qemu virtual PC on top of linux.
Instalation went fine.

Configuring the ethernet is the problem:
1 - dhclient ed0 gives no valid address 
1.a - when using tun0 for the ethernet interface to qemu
       dhclient results in the following kernel error/warning message:

x86 emulated hardware : which make.conf options ?

I would like to install Gentoo Linux on QEmu.
I want to compile some programs in order to fit QEmu emulated hardware.

Here are the flags I assume to fit emulated hardware :
I choosed -Os to optimize global speed (with emulation). Is it true ?
---
CFLAGS="-Os -fomit-frame-pointer -pipe -march=i386 -mno-mmx -mno-3dnow
-mno-sse2"
CXXFLAGS="${CFLAGS}"
---

What do you think about it ?

Thanks,
Jérôme

-Os provides resulting binary size optimizations. If you would like to
optimize for speed then you should probably use -O2 (which is general) or
-O3 (which is quite code specific and sometimes leads to slowdown)

Cheers,

problems with kqemu module.

I've downloaded the kqemu package yesterday, and tried to build qemu
from CVS today with that kqemu.

I've followed the instructions and the build went fine, I have
/dev/kqemu, and kqemu in /lib/modules/kernel-version/misc/kqemu.ko

My kernel is 2.6.10-5-686-smp from the ubuntu distro.
trying to modprobe kqemu gives me this:

miguel <at> garfield:/lib/modules$ sudo modprobe kqemu
FATAL: Error inserting kqemu
(/lib/modules/2.6.10-5-686-smp/misc/kqemu.ko): Invalid module format
miguel <at> garfield:/lib/modules$ sudo insmod ./2.6.10-5-686-smp/misc/kqemu.ko
insmod: error inserting './2.6.10-5-686-smp/misc/kqemu.ko': -1 Invalid
module format

Can you ppl give me any advice?

TIA, and best regards

Most likely you used the wrong kernel sources/headers. The kernel sources you 
use when building kqemu must *exactly* match the kernel you're running.

RE: Current state of RFB patch

Hola

I have successfully testet the rfb10 patch on Mandrake 10.0 with the
current build of QEMU. It's that great, to start any guest OS using a
GUI on a Linux with only a CLI ;-) That's a big thing. As known, the
mouse behavior is a little bit odd. I use the de-ch keymap, it needs
some research for having the whole swiss german keyboard function
correctly.

Many thanks to all helping on this project.

Andreas
