I compiled qemu from factory sources and the VNC worker thread gets stuck in vnc-jobs.c in this code: 224 while (QTAILQ_EMPTY(&queue->jobs) && !queue->exit) { 225 qemu_cond_wait(&queue->cond, &queue->mutex); 226 } (the line numbers are off due to my adding debug output). Somehow there are never jobs in the queue, so the thread is not continueing sending updates. I'm going back to 2.0, but if you have an idea how to continue debugging this, let me know. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.
