The “Devices” section in a VM tab should be renamed to something more abstract like “Hardware” (e.g.: a memory module isn’t really a device, but it’s still hardware).

Hi there

The directories for the translations- and the help-files shouldn’t directly be in /usr or /usr/local but rather in /usr/share/qtemu or /usr/local/share/qtemu.

The attached patch fixes this.

I encountered that little bug while writing a package (“ebuild”) for Gentoo Linux. It is now in the Gentoo Sunrise User Overlay, here: http://overlays.gentoo.org/svn/proj/sunrise/sunrise/app-emulation/qtemu/

Cheers,
Tiziano

Per virtual machine it should be possible to set the QEMU executable used (e.g. mips/x86_64/etc.) instead of using the same one for every VM.
This way you can, for example, have both 32-bit and 64-bit virtual machines.

I created this desktop file for Ubuntu and Debian, and would like to have it included upstream for Unix builds. It goes to (PREFIX)/share/applications.

Also, it would be nice if the .ico icon was also included in the .png format and installed to (PREFIX)/share/icons/hicolor/32×32/apps.

Could anybody explain why RAM size in QtEmu could be set only for 2GB maximum?

QtEmu allocates a lot of memory (at least on Windows). The Task Manager shows ~500MB after a few hours (you can see it when you turn on the “Virtual Memory Size” column).

From downstream bug report:
There's no desktop file in qtemu package. So, it is not possible to launch QtEmu from application menu.

qtemu includes a "qtemu.desktop" file in the "misc" directory in the subversion repository, but not in the release (qtemu-1.0.5.tar.bz2). This is an upstream bug.
Here's a direct link to the file: http://qtemu.svn.sourceforge.net/viewvc/qtemu/trunk/qtemu/misc/qtemu.desktop

An error has occurred. This may have been caused by
an incorrect setting. The error is:
Could not find KVM version for this KVM binary, got version acceleration has been left in its default state. Got version -1

I am trying to build it from source but without success on latest Mint.

qtemu does not support different image-formats. It also creates raw-images. They are to big.
It should be create qcow2-format as default or should over all available formats (behind a advanced-button).

On the https://qtemu.org/ page it says "You might want to take a look at a fork: https://gitlab.com/carlavilla/Qtemu/". This fork no longer exists, so it should be removed from the project page.

when compiling with ld --no-copy-dt-needed the compilation fails due to a missing link:

/usr/bin/ld: CMakeFiles/qtemu.dir/machineprocess.o: undefined reference
to symbol 'QLocalSocket::QLocalSocket(QObject*)'
/usr/bin/ld: note: 'QLocalSocket::QLocalSocket(QObject*)' is defined in
DSO /usr/lib/libQtNetwork.so.4 so try adding it to the linker command line

attached patch fixes the issue.

I installed win 98 but there is no audio at all, although I checked the corresponding item in the Gui. So what's now? What driver do you need?

Hi, we liked QtEmu and translated it to our language.
Translation was done by Necmettin Begiter <begiter at gmail dot com>, and revised by me.

Thank you for this fine GUI.

Qemu offers two graphic cards, of which the cirrus card is the default card.

Ubuntu hardy (current devel line) however does not start because x.org finds no xdriver.

In order to support all not so tech savvy users who want to use qtemu to start ubuntu machines in the near future a new option in qtemu is needed.

Could anybody explain why RAM size in QtEmu could be set oonly for 2GB maximux?

When trying to run a virtual machine that doesn’t have a virtual disk, it fails silently because the “disk image” parameter is still passed to QEMU but of course qemu will fail.

If no “disk image” is set QtEmu should not pass the corresponding parameter to QEMU. Also it should first check whether the disk image exists and display an error message if it doesn’t.

Proot static , umeq (his variety of quemu static) (likewise github)
, by one of Debian guys , was able to chroot
To arm64 , ie /opt/gentoo-arm64
To my irk the newer fs root fails. Granted it was a touch unstable previously if pushed hard.

Be nice to just drop a chroot type of dir as my "mounted" disk image.
Ie fs root jail... /home/mydir/my-rasberipi3... etc.

With a full qemu.. and as am option for qtemu.
A jail/chroot , for running under qtemu.
Build a few packages, etc.

If the window is too small, the text that appears if you click “Other” (in the “Devices” section of a virtual machine tab) doesn’t display correctly.

Instead, the window should be resized automatically, and it should also be resized if the user resizes the window after the window was resized automatically (and the “Other” button is still ‘down’).

Hi. Is there a way to choose CPU architecture for VM?
I didn't find this on UI.

When creating a virtual machine, the step for creating a virtual disk fails silently when qemu-img is not found.

Instead it should display an error message pointing out qemu-img couldn’t be found.

qtemu creates VMs with snapshot mode enabled, and I want to turn it off to run an installer. Changing the setting even while the VM is stopped isn’t enough. I have to change the setting and restart qtemu.

I’m using v1.0.3 on Ubuntu Gutsy (AMD64).

Otherwise, great job on a nice gui. Something fancier for disk image settings (qcow/raw/whatever) and managing snapshots would be really cool…

qtemu 1.0.1 seems to have problems in using the configured options when launching qemu.

For example, I have a Windows ME setup, snapshot unchecked, network enabled, however usually when launching it with qtemu, I see it passing -snapshot and -net none to qemu which is not what I wanted. Always toggling the configured options on/off in qtemu UI before launching does seem to work around it.

This is Fedora Core 6, x86_64, qtemu 1.0.1.
