FreeBSD 9.3-RELEASE-p5, qemu-0.11.1_18, kqemu-kmod-1.3.0.p11_12 ? I have tried w/ kqemu loaded & unloaded (recommended online), w/ -nographic, w/ -vga std, etc. No love. All I want to do is run a WinXP 32bit VM &/or a 64-bit Win7 VM from my desktop (xfce-4.10_7, xorg-7.7_1, xf86-video-vesa-2.3.3_5) :-/ ....
