Re: [ANNOUNCE] qemu-kvm-0.12.0-rc2 released

[Ingmar Schraub <is@eseco.de>]

Hi,

after upgrading from qemu-kvm-0.11.1 to qemu-kvm-0.12.0-rc2 I noticed
two immediate problems on two different hosts:

1.) The e1000 driver doesn't work anymore. The Guest OS detects it
(tested with Ubuntu Karmic 64-Bit and Windows 7 64 Bit), but it doesn't
work. DHCP doesn't work, if you assign manually an IP address, you can
ping this locally (inside the guest), but nothing else. Switching to
virtio and my network is ok.

2.) If you specify an USB device at the command line like -usbdevice
host:0421:00ab and the device is not available (not plugged-in) when you
start the guest, qemu segfaults.

I am running kvm-kmod-2.6.32.

Both hosts are Intel machines, one is running a 64-Bit Ubuntu Karmic,
the other is running Fedora 12.

If you need further information, I am happy to provide. Please let me know.

Thanks,

Ingmar
