Out of curiosity, I ran the linux firmware kit live cdrom, that tests
linux interaction with the BIOS.

The test results in 3 failures and 3 warning when executed in qemu
using the command "qemu -cdrom firmwarekit.iso"

[FAIL] Validate assigned PCI resources
F Device 0000:00:02.0 has incorrect resources
[FAIL] MTRR validation
F Memory range 0x0 to 0x9fbff (System RAM) has incorrect attribute
F Memory range 0x0 to 0x9fbff (System RAM) is lacking attribute
F Memory range 0x100000 to 0x7ffffff (System RAM) has incorrect attribute
F Memory range 0x100000 to 0x7ffffff (System RAM)  is lacking attribute
[FAIL] FADT test
F Legacy modes, SCI_EN bit in PM1a_Control register is Disabled
[WARN] MCFG PCI Express* memory mapped config space
W No MCFG ACPI table found. This tables is required for PCI Express
[WARN] CPU frequency scaling tests
W Frequency scaling not supported
[WARN] EDD Boot disk hinting
W No BIOS provided EDD information for multi-disk OS installs

The kit is available from http://www.linuxfirmwarekit.org/download.php.
