Subject: Using serial with Windows XP - need help
Date: Thu, 08 Apr 2010 00:32:43 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <4BBD080B.9090606@telemach.net> (raw)
Using:
kvm-0.12.3
libvirt-0.7.7
kernel-2.6.31
I am trying to persuade my Win XP guest to use the serial which I have
configured using the virt-manager. But whatever I try no COMs appear in
guest. I have tried with socket, tcp, pipe, etc. with just the same
result - no COM within the guest. I have obviously missed something. I
need help to set-up that COM appear and work within guest machine.
guest's XML part for serial looks like:
<serial type='tcp'>
<source mode='connect' host='127.0.0.1' service='4555'/>
<protocol type='raw'/>
<target port='0'/>
</serial>
<console type='tcp'>
<source mode='connect' host='127.0.0.1' service='4555'/>
<protocol type='raw'/>
<target port='0'/>
</console>
Here is the latest command line to run my guest:
/usr/bin/qemu-kvm -S -M pc-0.11 -enable-kvm -m 512 -smp
1,sockets=1,cores=1,threads=1 -name windowsxp -uuid
