[Qemu-devel] Windows ME on PPC (G5) success, no sound?

[jaspal.kallar.gen]

Just wanted to say that I installed Windows ME (guest) from the install 
disc on my powermac G5 dual 1.8 (host). 

I could surf the net and install programs. However, I don't get any sound 
card even with the enable-audio option in QEMU. Anyway know how if this is 
possible or a bug ?

Sorry, but RTFM ;p

Here is what says man qemu about sound :

"-enable-audio
            The SB16 emulation is disabled by default as it may give 
problems with Windows. You can enable it manually with this option."

I did first read the RTFM, that's what I meant with

"I don't get any sound card even with the enable-audio option in QEMU".

This is what I did:

  qemu -boot c -m 64 -user-net -enable-audio -localtime windows_ME.img

and window ME boots OK but no sound when checking in control panel and 
when playing audio.

I then remembered to run some sort of "find new machine" wizard and the 
sound card was found (my fault since I harldy ever use windows -- I should 
have known).

There is no sound support on Mac OS X. Qemu use OSS, and as far as I 
know there is no port of OSS for Darwin/Mac OS X.

Just used google and found that:

" liboss is a sound API to provide OSS support in  Apple OS X. This 
will provide an audio API bridge  between the linux OSS API and the 
Apple OS X CoreAudio API. Enabling easier ports to OS X of  software 
that requires OSS Support."

Nice ;) but there is no stable release. And the project is somewhat 
old. Did someone test it?

There is a patch out there that can be used to make qemu use SDL_Audio
instead of OSS. It was designed for Windows but it works on Linux too,
so odds are good that it can be made to work w/ OS X.

How is the performance on the G5?

Hello all again,

I must CLARIFY that my success was on Linux (gentoo 2.6.7 kernel) 
actually and not OS X. I'm really sorry having ommitted this important 
fact! 

The performance ... well it is slow if I am honest. You can 
play actually, for example, play real player 10 live streaming audio with 
aomw crackling and sometimes the oss crashes and cause qemu to die 
(therefore sound is off by default according to qemu doc ;-) 
Streaming audio is out of the question but I imagine that would be the 
same on a real windows using Pentium Pro. That's the reason I tried qemu 
in the first place. All in all I'm very impressed ... kudos to the 
developers.
