[kvm-devel] problem upgrading to kvm-33
Hi, I was currently using kvm-24, and I decided to try to upgrade to the latest. My guest is XP-SP2 Home full edition.When I tried to boot it under kvm-33, I eventually got a blue screen and a IRQL_NOT_LESS_OR_EQUAL error. I removed 33, and installed kvm-26.I was able to boot the VM successfully with that. So I guess this problem was introduced somewhere between 27 and 33. Is there a way to tweak the guest to get around this problem? Thanks, Tony Smolar - This SF.net email is sponsored by: Splunk Inc. Still grepping through log files to find problems? Stop.

Re: [kvm-devel] problem upgrading to kvm-33
this sound like hardware error, try to disable all the hardware you can, (such as the lan support) in qemu. please check if it can run with the "--no-kvm". -הודעה מקורית- מאת: [EMAIL PROTECTED] בשם Tony Smolar נשלח: א 12/08/2007 10:19 אל: Amit Shah עותק לידיעה: kvm-devel@lists.sourceforge.net נושא: Re: [kvm-devel] problem upgrading to kvm-33 Amit Shah wrote: >On Saturday 11 August 2007 08:48:41 Tony Smolar wrote: > > >>Hi, I was currently using kvm-24, and I decided to try to upgrade to >>the latest. >> >>My guest is XP-SP2 Home full edition.When I tried to boot it under >>kvm-33, I eventually got a blue screen and a IRQL_NOT_LESS_OR_EQUAL error. >> >>I removed 33, and installed kvm-26.I was able to boot the VM >>successfully with that.

First can you please provide the cpu type, we had some problems on AMD. Second, what's the host's OS? Is it 32/64 bit? kernel version. Third, does -no-kvm works? Some sanities just for making sure: - Try running qemu with taskset -p 1 - Add -L SOURCE_REPOSITROY_PATH_FOR_QEMU_PC-BIOS directory for making sure you use the right bios.bin -- Dor. - This SF.net email is sponsored by: Splunk Inc.

It also appeared somewhere between kvm-29 and kvm-31 (29 and 30 didn't build for me). The good news is that the new version 34 does not seem to have this problem, I haven't tested it extensively yet. Lastly, what drove me to upgrade in the first place was that I was experiencing minor bugs running "The Sims" under XP. There would be sound while the game is starting, but once the game starts, sound stops working. Also the mouse pointer would leave behind "residue" on the screen which would be cleaned up every few seconds (I guess during a refresh). I also had problems losing sound with iTunes. I am using the es1370 setting for sound. Like I said these were minor, and are still present in kvm-34. Thanks, Tony Smolar - This SF.net email is sponsored by: Splunk Inc.
