Thanks, Dave. Note that there are several bugs against upstream QEMU project regarding windows, but I don't offhand recall one like in comment #12. Would you mind opening a new bug for that, and I will (or you can) mark it as afffecting QEMU. If I understand right, this particular bug is fix rel

Hi All, On QQ this VM is now booting for me (Qemu is now 1.1~rc+dfsg-1ubuntu7) (with the original XML) The guest's X isn't that happy though (which suggests to me it's probably a separate bug?): In Xorg.0.log: (EE) vmware(0): Failed to open drm. In dmesg: [drm:vmw_driver_load] *ERROR*

@Harald, When you create guests you can specify the machine type, so if you're not tied to any features of a particular version number (the version numbers *are* supposed to provide a stable unchanging set of features, ideally :) you can certainly use 'pc'. The script libvirt-migrate-qemu-machine

I have lost a couple of hours on this on every dist-upgrade of Ubuntu. Wouldn't it be time to either include some xml-upgrade hook when upgrading qemu/libvirt/whatever or just drop the version-number from the 'pc' when creating guests? -- You received this bug notification because you are a membe
