It seems to be the same problem that I have with OpenBSD 4.5 [1]. I did not test with Virtio because I don't know if OBSD kernel supports it. Testing with the default network interface and the same kernel compiled (with disabled mpbios device) I have the same problem. When I was using KVM-62, I was using the ne2k_pci driver with stock kernel and this configuration worked without problems. But this configuration stopped working with KVM-88 and, under these circumstances, mbios disabled and e1000 gave good results for me. Backing to use the ne2k_pci driver with mpbios disabled, the network is reachable again. I will to try with stock kernel and I will comment the results. > [...] > I am running kvm-kmod-2.6.32.

In this case I'm using Ubuntu Hardy Heron amd64 on the host and OpenBSD 4.5 i386 on guest.
