Hi,

I'm glad to hear that I could help you.

However - sdl does have its advantages: Ctr+Shift+f switches forth and
back to and from fullscreen mode operation;
(and of course it makes QEMU as well as other projects using it ways
more host platform independent as it doesn't require the presence of X).

In my eyes Juergen's approach is a much cleaner solution:

Having installed both qemu_using_X11 and qemu_using_SDL at the same time
would be possible too (ie to /usr/local and /opt or /usr).
