Package: qemu
Version: qemu-kvm
Severity: important
I upgraded kvm in the lenny stream last week:
2010-03-24 09:38:18 upgrade kvm 72+dfsg-5+squeeze1 1:0.12.3+dfsg-4
Unfortunately since doing so running my ubuntu kvm image has become painfully
slow, 1 to 2 second screen redraw times. The ubuntu image I am running has
performed without issue for nearly 6 months.
Below is some information that I hope will help:
1.) KVM version
$ kvm -version
QEMU PC emulator version 0.12.3 (qemu-kvm-0.12.3), Copyright (c)
2003-2008 Fabrice Bellard
2.) My KVM command
$kvm -hda /home/jgdon/qemu/ubuntu.qcow -cdrom /dev/cdrom -boot c -m 512
-net nic,vlan=0 -net user -vga std -k en-us
3.) This seems to be related to a defect logged against kvm (see below). After
asking around on IRC it was recommended to me that the upstream package be
bugged:
http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=574988
4.) More of an aside ... but in case it helps ... I tried re-configuring X11 in
ubuntu with the new version of kvm ... it seems to crash (i expect this is
unrelated but just in case it gives a hint)
$sudo X11 -configure
...
...
...
