Reply-To: qemu-devel@nongnu.org List-Id: qemu-devel.nongnu.org List-Unsubscribe: , List-Archive: List-Post: List-Help: List-Subscribe: , To: qemu-devel@nongnu.org Dear List, The kqemu-enabled virtualization does wonders for me : I am now able to use a W2K installation for RealLife(TM) uses, which seriously simplifies my (end-user) life. I sincerely hope that Fabrice will find a sponsor for kqemu and (L)GPL it. Now, I have a small wishlist or enhancements in the "emulated peripherals" section : - Support for "larger" video modes. The current emulated Cirrus supports 800x600x24b, 1024x768x16b and 1280x1024x8b ; I feel there is some possible uses for 1024x768x24b and maybe 1280x1024x24b. Possible benefits : serious simplifications for guest X servers or GUIs, serious support for some GUI- or graphics-intensive guest programs (especially on Win* guests...). - Support for audio *input* on the emulated SB16. This pet of mine would allow me to use speech recognition, which is currently available on Win* only, alas... Does someone works on these ? Sincerely, Emmanuel Charpentier -- Emmanuel Charpentier charpent bacbuc dyndns org
