hi. i just joined the mailing list but i found that qemu runs strangely on slackware64-current. i've tried it on 2 machines and i get similar results and also with both 1.5.2 and 1.6.0-rc3. i compiled using each of:
./configure --prefix=/usr
./configure --prefix=/usr --enable-tcg-interpreter
./configure --prefix=/usr --enable-tcg-interpreter --disable-bsd-user \
--target-list=x86_64-linux-user,i386-linux-user,i386-softmmu,x86_64-softmmu
then
make -j4
su
make install
then as user if i run:
qemu-system-x86_64
I get the sdl window popup and it stops at...
"SeaBIOS (version rel-1.7.3-0-gc....."
However if instead i run:
qemu-system-x86_64 -display curses
it takes me all the way into the failing to boot, then pxe boot, etc. I've tried this on 2 systems, one with nvidia driver, the other with open source ati drivers. qemu works fine on a separate ubuntu install but its using 1.4.x. i also found the using vnc works fine too.
any ideas?
