Hi Guys,
I've been looking around for a solution to this problem that I've been having
with qemu on ubuntu Gutsy. It seemed to work fine on Feisty, but I haven't been
able to find anyone else with a similar complaint in the ubuntu forums or on
google or on irc, so maybe a simple upgrade problem isn't the issue. I hope
it's OK to post to the dev mailing list ?
The system seems to have a problem locating the framebuffer, also SDL doesn't
get initialized.
[EMAIL PROTECTED]:/home/babo/qemu_dir# qemu -localtime -cdrom /dev/cdrom -m 384
-boot d c.img

(*) DirectFB/Core: Single Application Core. (2007-08-07 19:21)
(*) Direct/Memcpy: Using linux kernel memcpy()
(!) Direct/Util: opening '/dev/fb0' and '/dev/fb/0' failed

(!) DirectFB/Core: Could not initialize 'system' core!

Could not initialize SDL - exiting
I'd try to start the system from X, but there doesn't seem to be any method of
doing that. Obviously there is a framebuffer somewhere, but the command line
qemu can't seem to find it.
Any help is greatfully accepted,
Thanks,
Dara
