I posted this a while ago and nobody responded. I found out what the problem is: If you use Debian's 2.6.21 kernel and modify it to turn *off* paravirtualization (to be able to use the nvidia closed source driver) and compile kqemu with that, qemu hangs solid on start. If you instead leave the kernel alone and modify the nvidia driver installation and Debian's kbuild-2.6.21 then everything is OK. Just for the record. Regards, Hugo Yahoo!
