[Qemu-devel] [Bug 722311] Re: Segmentation fault if started without -enable-kvm parameter

[Bug Reporter]

The problem reported above was the same up to and including qemu 0.15.0.
Meanwhile I found this on the LinuxFromScratch (LFS) bug tracker:

  "Glibc-2.14 causes segfaults in SDL",
http://wiki.linuxfromscratch.org/lfs/ticket/2920

After applying their patch to GLIBC, qemu finally works again on the
Pentium 4. As far as I am concerned, this bug report can now be closed.

Title:
  Segmentation fault if started without -enable-kvm parameter

Status in QEMU:
  New

Bug description:
  I start qemu (Linux) from the same USB memory stick on several
  computers. Up to and including qemu 0.12.5, I could use or not use
  qemu's "-enable-kvm" command line parameter as appropriate for the
  hardware, and qemu would run. In contrast, qemu 0.13.0 and 0.14.0
  segfault if started without "-enable-kvm". I get a black window
  appearing for fractions of a second, disappearing immediately, and
  then the error message "Segmentation fault".

  Hardware: Pentium 4, and Core 2 Duo.
  Command line: either "qemu" or "qemu -enable-kvm" (after manually loading the 
kvm-intel module on the Core 2 Duo).
  Reproducible: always.
