The 12.0 snapshot also works on my FreeBSD 11.1 host with the stock qemu package.  Both keyboard and mouse input are processed. Interestingly, though, while 12.0 works, it seems to be a lot slower than 11.1 under qemu.  Below are times to get to the install screen.  ( I just close the qemu window as soon as it reaches that point, where 11.1 won't accept keyboard input. ) FreeBSD cray.acadix  bacon ~ 999: time qemu-ppc install freebsd-ppc.img FreeBSD-12.0-CURRENT-powerpc-powerpc64-20180709-r336134-disc1.iso + [ ! -e freebsd-ppc.img ] + qemu-system-ppc64 -cdrom FreeBSD-12.0-CURRENT-powerpc-powerpc64-20180709-r336134-disc1.iso -drive 'file=freebsd-ppc.img,format=raw' -boot d 217.327u 3.455s 4:21.41 84.4%    9628+6292k 94+2io 476pf+0w FreeBSD cray.acadix  bacon ~ 1000: time qemu-ppc install freebsd-ppc.img Save/FreeBSD-11.1-RELEASE-powerpc-powerpc64-disc1.iso + [ ! -e freebsd-ppc.img ] + qemu-system-ppc64 -cdrom Save/FreeBSD-11.1-RELEASE-powerpc-powerpc64-disc1.iso -drive 'file=freebsd-ppc.img,format=raw' -boot d 123.001u 1.748s 2:47.05 74.6%    9643+6302k 556+3io 0pf+0w Maybe these data will provide some clues to the ppc base developers... -- Earth is a beta site.
