At the moment I'm working on another topic, so it's not really relevant
anymore. By the time it was, I finally used the emulator on an Ubuntu
vm, which worked perfectly well.

I tried that (using debootstrap) before I found the qemu-yagl solution,
but it didn't work for me. Cannot remember what the issue was though.
Maybe I should give it another try some time.

Thank you very much for these insights, if I need the emulator running
natively again, I'll certainly give those approaches a try.

Thanks a lot,
