So kqemu-1.3.0pre11 (the latest version) hangs the system solid with 2.6.21-1-k7, the Debian stock kernel. But I have modified that kernel with 2.6.21-ck2 from here:

Going back to the plain 2.6.18-4-k7 Debian kernel and reinstalling kqemu all errors disappear and XP initiates "normally" (i.e. M$'s version of "normal").

So the problem lies either in 2.6.21-1-k7 or in the -ck modification.


Hey hugo, I haven't been following this thread for various reasons,
but just yesterday I needed to do some stupid XP stuff and fired up
qemu. My kqemu was compiled from source months or longer ago and
needed recompiling. I just did a ./configure, make, make install in
the upstreams 1.3.0pre9 and it works fine with

andrew@basement:~$ uname -a
Linux basement 2.6.21-1-k7 #1 SMP Sat May 26 16:56:05 UTC 2007 i686
GNU/Linux

maybe this helps you. maybe not.

Andrew, I just posted the results of my investigation: it's due to my modifications of 2.6.21-1-k7 and turning PARAVIRT_CONFIG off to be able to install the nvidia driver.

Not modifying the kernel solved the problem.

Thanks

Hugo
