I wrote this guide for compiling qemu under dapper. It might help. You need to compile it with gcc 3.x and not gcc 4.x http://hants.lug.org.uk/cgi-bin/wiki.pl?LinuxHints/QemuCompilation http://hants.lug.org.uk/cgi-bin/wiki.pl?LinuxHints/QemuCompilationFromCVS If there are any errors or omissions let me know, I've not updated it for edgy, but i use the process in that page for compiling qemu myself.
