You could write an application that would control QEMU via its monitor interface. It would then be possible to suspend, pause, and do all sort of cool things with the VM. A much simpler solution would be to have QEMU started by cron, and set up the guest OS to shut down after doing something. Or you could run QEMU in snapshot mode and simply kill it, when not needed. Or... the possibilities are endless. What exactly do you want to achieve? And do not forget that QEMU is mostly a GUI application, so you will probably need to run xorg. -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.6 (GNU/Linux) iD8DBQFF3w+TztOe9mov/y4RAiOeAJwP+XAbIrMQNRhfGOcH0/Oodef4TACdG9ho gUK+AnLR7t14mvvqp7R7ODY= =g4e/ -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
