First you should make sure you use gcc 3.3. Newer versions seem to do something funny. Next it would be great if you could try to find some very simple failing program (maybe write one?), to make debugging easier. Last time I looked, it seemed to be something with signal handling. > i386-softmmu: > > Seems broken? (no cpu_get_ticks form alpha, "unsupported cpu error" > in vl.c) Alpha has a 32-bit cycle counter which could be used here, one just would have to compensate for the frequent overflows. But it's probably not worth bothering as long as the CPU emulation doesn't work... -- Falk
