To: kvm@vger.kernel.org Content-Type: text/plain; charset="UTF-8" Sender: kvm-owner@vger.kernel.org Precedence: bulk List-ID: X-Mailing-List: kvm@vger.kernel.org I have an issue where I cannot install or run Windows XP using KVM, but it is fine under plain QEMU (with "-no-kvm"). Details here: https://stackoverflow.com/questions/57499661/libvirt-how-to-prevent-accel-kvm I have found some similar-sounding cases, but they are from ~10 years ago. Assuming this is a valid bug, I am trying to find the right place to file it. Perhaps this is the right link? https://www.linux-kvm.org/page/Bugs If so, then the instructions there tell me "Even if you use kvm from a distribution ... it is important to use the latest sources." I am indeed using a distribution (Debian 10.0), but I'm not sure what is meant by "use the latest sources". Does it mean an up-to-date package for my distribution? Or is it suggesting I compile KVM myself from source? Thanks for any advice. -John
