Bug: automatic reboot winxp hanging on vnc...

[Thomas Besser <thomas.besser@archIT.uni-karlsruhe.de>]

Hi all,

Once again, I posted this already in march with not uptodate kvm version.
Now we have kvm-69 and the same behavior on debian etch host (self
backported from sid).

We are running an winxp client as kvm guest (with vnc option) all day long
(license management software). So automatic windows updates are activated.

Guest ist started like:
kvm -vnc :0 -usbdevice tablet -usbdevice host:064f:0bd7 -usbdevice
host:0529:0001 -k de -net nic,vlan=0,macaddr=00:50:56:00:08:15 -net
tap,vlan=0,ifname=tap21,script=no -m
256 -localtime -daemonize ./lizenzknecht.raw

On MS patch days steadily the guest hangs on automatic reboot, until one
connect with vnc to it. Instantly and without any user action the reboot
takes place after that.

Any hints to solve this problem?

Thanx in advance
Thomas
