I normally run my qemus with -vnc, occasionally with default console, but never with -nographic, and have never seen any connectivity problems between them. My host machine isn't slow, but ping is about the least resource-intensive thing you can do network-wise. I would guess that you had the bridge setup messed up somehow when ping didn't work, or possibly a local firewall on one of the guest OSes got in the way. Assuming that both guest systems were actually running at all, that is - firing up two qemus running KDE/Gnome or somesuch on a slow machine could probably make everything grind to a halt, but you don't have to run a window system just because you run in "graphic mode". --Per Hedeland
