Hi. Well, I updated qemu to the latest version. then I got to the directory where I have my windows image, and ran: qemu win.img -soundhw all -localtime -curses And a surprice came, I heard the xp startup sound. But a problem is after that, I can't seem to do anything in xp. For example pressing start button and r to bring up the run box doesn't give any result. Because when typing a ltter, and pressing enter in tat box, you get a sound telling you that there is no such thing there. also, when pressing allt f4, I'm getting back to a linux login screen. It shouldn't be like that. I'hve tested with the -full-screen option. What can be wrong now? /Kristoffer ----- Original Message ----- From: "Don Raikes" <DON.RAIKES@xxxxxxxxxx> To: "Speakup is a screen review system for Linux." <speakup at braille.uwo.ca> Sent: Saturday, June 05, 2010 11:38 PM Subject: RE: Linux virtualization > Thanks, I will need to look at the unattended method of installing xp.
