Honestly, WTF? I ask about how to start qemuctl (not qemu, I don't care about qemu YET) and you tell me about qemu options. How should I know that the stupid thing dies BECAUSE options of some OTHER PROGRAM are missing? It does not tell me that. Nor does the manpage do so. > > When I start a GUI, I expect a GUI to appear and not just quickly > > terminate without giving me any clue why or at least having a manpage > This is true.

Sure, but for essential things? You expect users to have electronics diploma before using electronic devices like keyboard or mouse?
