as others also stated, qemu monitor is also available through vnc. maybe
your vnc client blocks ALT. i have to click on the titlebar and choose
"Alt" (realvnc).
but mostly i do redirect montior to a socket. with this command line
switches: -monitor unix:/var/run/kvm-<vm-name>,server,nowait
i then connect with a tool called socat (socat stdio /var/run/kvm-<vm-
name>).
don't try to exit the console with "quit". :)
