The workaround is: Deal with the yellow bang e1000e by: Select the problematic e1000e in "Device Manager", -> "Uninstall device" -> "Scan for hardware changes". I tend to think that this e1000e issue can be solved from either qemu's angle or windows's angle. Obverously, qemu is proper direction for us, I ran above test again with upstream qemu(8.0.0-rc0) -------------------------------------------------------------------------- | [pc-q35-6.1, pc-q35-7.1] | [pc-q35-7.2, ] -------------------------------------------------------------------------- Win10_1909_Ger with e1000e | Pass | Pass -------------------------------------------------------------------------- I think the qemu commit 467d099a(v7.2.0-rc0~55^2~11) fixes the issue. The upstream qemu v7.2.0 was released 3 months ago and v8.0.0 is fast approaching, It seems our qemu version in factory is a little bit behind the upstream. IMO this issue can be fixed after our qemu in factory is upgraded to newer version. @ ulfbart, I backported this fix to qemu-x86-7.1.0 into my repository: https://download.opensuse.org/repositories/home:/lin_ma:/branches:/Virtualiz... If you want to have this fix right now or is willing to help to verify it, Please update qemu from my repo. Lin -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the bug.
