If you have access to a Linux box, I'd definitely recommend testing the same setup there. That way you can distinguish "this doesn't work on Solaris" from "this doesn't work generally" -- the latter are (a) more likely to be config/command line issues and (b) are easier for us to work on where there are bugs.

However, there is no network connectivity. There are no network devices visible in XP's Networking tab of Control Panel and a ping of the local router reports "unreachable". Also, the keyboard works fine but the guest mouse pointer is offset from the host mouse position by an amount that varies by screen position. This makes it impossible to point to locations near the edge of the qemu window. This seems to be a previously reported problem, but the suggested fix, " -device usb-tablet", prevents qemu from even starting: qemu-system-x86_64: -device usb-tablet: No 'usb-bus' bus found for device 'usb-tablet' The physical mouse is connected to the USB port of a Sun Ray 2fs controlling the M3000 via Sun Ray server. I apologize if this is a configuration issue and not a bug but I don't know where else to report it and have been unable to find a solution in the documentation.
