Package: qemu
Version: 0.10.1-1
Severity: normal

Using the (default) Cirrus Logic GD 5446 PCI VGA video card option for the i386 
guest doesn't work with Windows 98 SE.  The Standard VGA with VESA Bochs 
extensions does.

The initial boot goes fine, but once Windows reachs the point where it sets the 
display mode away from VGA (640x480x16[256?]) mode the display is corrupted and 
the VM hangs.  This is probably a vgabios thing (I'm using the only version 
inthe archive at present) but I'm not sure so I'll let you decide.

BTW Thank you very, very much for getting the stability issues resolved.  I had 
given up on being able to use Qemu, because I have too many other things on the 
go to learn a whole new technological framework in order to fix it myself.

Regards,

Daniel
