Hi Avadh, For now I am working around this using vnc. I agree that it may be an X11/SDL interaction but I haven't figured out yet what it could be. If you could send me the patch for qemu 0.14 I could at least eliminate that as a variable. Thanks.

If this issue does not come up with 'vnc' then it should be an issue with X11/SDL library interface issue with QEMU. - Avadh P.S. I am working on patch that updates the QEMU code to 0.14 which is provided by Adnan. If you want to take a look at that patch, let me know.

When I enter the marss directory and execute 'qemu/qemu-system-x86_64' after about 10 seconds the X11 display starts blanking on and off at a rate of about 5 sec / 5 sec. Running a non-marss version of qemu-system-x86_64 on the same system does not exhibit the blanking loop. The version of qemu in marss is reported as 0.12.3 while the version installed system wide is 0.14.0. I tried to debug it a bit. If I use a vnc connection to view a booting marss session (with -vnc :10) there is no blanking loop. If I use the -curses switch (no VGA) I do not see the blanking loop either. Any suggestions?
