I say "should", because I haven't actually tested it with a Linux guest yet. I'll try to do that later; I have to leave now. > Oh and is the audio output bad when using linux guest too?

The patches have lot's of tabs in them btw. *Sigh* my tools are tuned to Linux kernel development, I'm afraid. > P.P.S. There's an extension to your Intel HDA Audio option: > to get the HDA code from VirtualBox and "port" it to QEMU. I know.
