The patch you put up on Nov 2 was a really easy to work with. Nicely
done! I installed it here and it ran successfully. It booted a windows
2003 server image successfully. I attached a screenshot.

Time runs at about half speed inside a linux guest.

Between qemu+kvm and just qemu (on the same hardware) there doesn't
seem to be an obvious difference in speed. I didn't look around much
more than just booting a few images so far; so that's all I'm basing
that unscientific estimate on.

For me, this Nov 11 tarball is a lot harder to work with. For the
kernel module, I can't tell by inspection what patches have been
applied from the mailing list. For qemu, the whole qemu upstream is
extracted in there so if I want to get a clean patch now I would have
to guess which version to start will and make my own diff.

Enjoy,
Jeff
