Re:(solved) emulators/qemu 2026Q3 do not work with existing images

Hello

I have compiled qemu with gtk display option in /etc/mk.conf and it works fine:

PKG_OPTIONS.qemu+=     gtk3 -sdl

So it looks like SDL was indeed the culprit and it is broken someway.


netbsd-nuc$ cat arranca_freedos_nvmm-gtk.sh
#!/bin/sh

qemu-system-i386 \
  -m 64 \
  -accel nvmm \
  -smp 1 \
  -drive file=freedos.qcow2,format=qcow2,if=ide,cache=writeback \
  -cdrom FD14BNS.iso\
  -boot c \
  -device sb16 \
  -vga cirrus \
  -display gtk \
  -nic user,model=e1000

netbsd-nuc$ cat arranca_debian-gtk.sh
qemu-system-x86_64 \
  -accel nvmm \
  -m 8G \
  -smp 4 \
  -cpu host \
  -drive file=debian.qcow2,format=qcow2 \
  -boot a \
  -nic user,model=e1000 \
  -display gtk \
  -virtfs local,id=shared_dev,path=/home/ramiro/directorio_compartido,security_model=none,mount_tag=hostshare

Regards.
