[Qemu-devel] [Bug 612677] [NEW] qemu-kvm -curses displays garbled screen

[Eugueny Kontsevoy]

Public bug reported:

when I launch qemu-kvm -curses (even without a guest OS) I get a garbled output, here's a screenshot:

some more info:

myarch ~: uname -a
Linux myarch 2.6.34-ARCH #1 SMP PREEMPT Mon Jul 5 22:12:11 CEST 2010 x86_64 Intel(R) Core(TM)2 Duo CPU P8700 @ 2.53GHz GenuineIntel GNU/Linux

myarch ~: qemu-kvm --version
QEMU PC emulator version 0.12.5 (qemu-kvm-0.12.5), Copyright (c) 2003-2008 Fabrice Bellard

I also fetched the latest qemu-kvm from git repo and compiled it with simple ./configure&make
The compiled version behaved similarly

I also tried different terminal emulators: gnome-terminal and xterm - same thing
I also tried real terminal (i.e. booted without X) - same thing

Then I thought maybe the issue is my hardware (if its possible) and
booted into Ubuntu on the same machine, installed KVM for Ubuntu and it
worked there.

[T. Huth]

I can not reproduce this issue using -curses with the latest version of
qemu, so I guess this has been fixed somewhen during the last years ...
if nobody else can reproduce it, I think we should close this bug.

I'm closing this bug now, since it is apparently working with the latest
version of QEMU.
