[Bug 589099] Re: does not work on amd64 without -no-kvm

[Alexander E. Patrakov]

I think I have already provided enough words: the SDL window is entirely
black for all my attempts to run new qemu-kvm, unless I pass -no-kvm. I
expect it to contain something visible, e.g. the following lines when
there is nothing to boot from:

Booting from Hard Disk...
Boot failed: could not read the boot disk

Booting from Floppy...
Boot failed: could not read the boot disk
                                                                               
Booting from CD-Rom...
Boot failed: Could not read from CDROM (code 0003)
No bootable device.

(and they do appear when starting with -no-kvm, or with old version of
qemu-kvm)

Does qemu work for you on amd64 (as I suspect that the bug is specific
to that architecture)?

As for the 'apport-collect 589099' command, I will run this tomorrow,
because now I am at home (with a different distro where qemu-kvm works).
Should I run it with the failing version installed, with the working
version, or it doesn't matter?
