Hi List.
I'm taking my first look at KVM, using version 85, on a Gentoo system
with kernel release 2.6.29.
The gist of my problem right now is that I can't figure out how to
access the monitor, and I've tried various things with no luck so far.
My first hitch was that apparently SDL isn't working properly on my
system, because running a console with SDL enabled just prints garbage
characters to my xterm. It seems that the mistranslation works both
ways, because in cases where I happen to know what the guest system is
displaying and can type blindly on its console, it doesn't behave the
way I expect given the input I (think I) gave it.
I'd start fixing this first. Do other SDL applications work? Is SDL
fully installed?
Sounds like you have SDL configured to use libaa and are running qemu
without DISPLAY set.
