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:

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.
