Windows XP is installed on an image file, starts up, but is very slow and mouse is jumpy after "mouse grab" (ctrl+alt+g). I have set and enabled everything as instructed here: https://wiki.freebsd.org/qemu and here (although similar, has better instructions): http://taer-naguur.blogspot.com/2013...ebsd-host.html. I start qemu as advised in 2nd link by: $ qemu-system-x86_64 -enable-kvm -kernel-kqemu -m 1024 -vga std -soundhw all -net nic,model=rtl8139 -net tap,name=tap0,script=no -hda /home/vm/windows_xp -boot c -localtime ==> qemu-system-x86_64: -kernel-kqemu: invalid option Removing the kernel-kqemu part and retrying gives a new problem ==> KVM not supported for this target "kvm" accelerator does not exist. No accelerator found! Removing this part (enable-kvm) and starting by $ qemu-system-x86_64 -m 1024 -vga std -soundhw all -net nic,model=rtl8139 -net tap,name=tap0,script=no -hda /home/vm/windows_xp -boot c -localtime ==> Assertion failed: (pio->offset >= off_last), function portio_list_add, file /asp/obj/asp/git/ports/emulators/qemu-devel/work/qemu-1.6.0/ioport.c, line 240. Abort (core dumped) Starting qemu as advised in the first link by $ qemu-system-x86_64 -net nic,model=e1000 -net tap,name=tap0,script=no -hda /home/vm/winxp.img results in the very slow Windows XP emulation described above. kldstat shows kqemu, aio and if_tap as loaded. Is the problem I am getting due to emulators/kqemu-kmod-devel or because of the start-up command? Installed packages: kqemu-kmod-devel-1.4.0.p1_5, qemu-devel-1.6.0.
