Hi,

We are faceing one Problem in Qemu guest os winxp . The Qemu hbas been
installed in Linux CentOs 4.4 . Guest os detected the Realtek Lan Adapter .
BUt with is Adpeter we are unable  get the IP from Our Dhcp Server. Could

Regards
Manish

I'm sending some more facts that should make clear why I think the
functionality provided by the patch is relevant. (At least for the DOS
emulation.)

Making emulated CPU slower
  Some old DOS games runs too fast on modern CPUs, even the qemu-emulted
ones. This patch can make these games playable.
  The problem was reported in
http://qemu-forum.ipi.fi/viewtopic.php?t=1264

Energy saving
  MSDOS doesn't use HLT insn. Even if the dosidle can help in command
prompt, it doesn't work in other programs such as games.
  This was reported in http://qemu-forum.ipi.fi/viewtopic.php?t=1372

The similar approach is used in dosbox by setting "CPU cycles". I think
qemu is better than dosbox, so it makes sense to me to include such
capability too.

This patch doesn't try to emulate the task scheduler that was why Martin
voted against it. I'm sorry if I wasnt't clear enough in my first post.

Mirek.
