The guest is Ubuntu 8.10 server (64-bit version). I also have the same problems with Ubuntu 8.04LTS server. Here's the command line: sudo /usr/local/bin/qemu-system-x86_64 \ -no-kvm-irqchip \ -daemonize \ -hda Imgs/sam_home.img \ -m 512 \ -cdrom ISOs/ubuntu-8.10-server-amd64.iso \ -parallel /dev/lp0 \ -vnc :1 \ -net nic,macaddr=DE:AD:BE:EF:01:01,model=e1000 \ -net tap,ifname=tap1,script=/home/chris/kvm/qemu-ifup.sh \ >>& Logs/sam_run.log Earlier in the mail chain, Marcelo had me run vmstat when it was hung, and it was all zeros. He also asked for a stack trace on the qemu and it showed two threads: (gdb) info threads 2 Thread 0x414f1950 (LWP 422) 0x00007f36f07a03e1 in sigtimedwait () from /lib/libc.so.6 1 Thread 0x7f36f1f306e0 (LWP 414) 0x00007f36f084b482 in select () from /lib/libc.so.6 (gdb) thread 1 [Switching to thread 1 (Thread 0x7f36f1f306e0 (LWP 414))]#0 0x00007f36f084b482 +in select () from /lib/libc.so.6 (gdb) bt #0 0x00007f36f084b482 in select () from /lib/libc.so.6 #1 0x00000000004094cb in main_loop_wait (timeout=0) at /home/chris/pkgs/kvm/kvm-79/qemu/vl.c:4719 #2 0x000000000050a7ea in kvm_main_loop () at /home/chris/pkgs/kvm/kvm-79/qemu/qemu-kvm.c:619 #3 0x000000000040fafc in main (argc=<value optimized out>, argv=0x7ffff9f41948) at /home/chris/pkgs/kvm/kvm-79/qemu/vl.c:4871 (gdb) thread 2 [Switching to thread 2 (Thread 0x414f1950 (LWP 422))]#0 0x00007f36f07a03e1 in +sigtimedwait () from /lib/libc.so.6 (gdb) bt #0 0x00007f36f07a03e1 in sigtimedwait () from /lib/libc.so.6 #1 0x000000000050a560 in kvm_main_loop_wait (env=0xc319e0, timeout=0) at /home/chris/pkgs/kvm/kvm-79/qemu/qemu-kvm.c:284 #2 0x000000000050aaf7 in ap_main_loop (_env=<value optimized out>) at /home/chris/pkgs/kvm/kvm-79/qemu/qemu-kvm.c:425 #3 0x00007f36f11ba3ea in start_thread () from /lib/libpthread.so.0 #4 0x00007f36f0852c6d in clone () from /lib/libc.so.6 #5 0x0000000000000000 in ?? () If I can provide any other debug info I'm happy to. I'm beginning to suspect you'll be able to easily reproduce it if you run Ubuntu 8.10 as a guest on amd processors. -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe kvm" in the body of a message to [EMAIL PROTECTED] More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
