i just tried this setup (not exact versions though) and qemu works! :) at least 
it does not
complain abount "could not initialize sdl". It opens its window and starts 
booting from "disk" :)
BUT ... :)
keyboard is screwed up ... There was a thread here on qemu-devel from "Joe 
Batt" who had the
same problem. According to Fabrice thats a problem with Applications using raw 
scancodes, which
do not get through vnc, as i understand.
http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/qemu-devel/2004-04/msg00290.html
But i could not find any way around this Problem. Neither did i find any switch 
to vnc(server|client)
to pass raw scancodes through nor where there any switches for qemu 
(i386-softmmu).
I also searched google and the mailinglists for qemu and tightvnc ...

my setup is as follows:
qemu-0.6.0
tightvnc-1.3dev5_unixsrc & tightvnc-1.2.9_unixsrc
libsdl-1.2.5
installation based on redhat-9

Can someone on this liste give me a hint on what to try ? :)
