I'm very pleased with qemu's price/performance ratio. I've used that one "pricey" product at work, but it always seemed a bit expensive for home users. But I only knew about some of the other emulators, the ones that are so slow you wonder why didn't they warn you not to bother downloading the thi

Dear list, I understand that the current "official" qemu needs gcc 3.x and won't compile with gcc 4.x I also understand that using a gcc3-compiled module (kqemu, in the present case) entails a cgg3-compiled kernel. I successfully recompiled such a kernel and qemu. So far so good. However, this
