Can you confirm that the qemu-dm installed by 'make > install-tools' is definitely the one being used by your domain? The method I used does not work, it appears that after patching and recompiling the binary does not get updated, it is the same as the one produced by the first "make tools". Instead I started from scratch and immediately after "make tools" downloaded ioemu-remote git I paused the process, applied the patch, and then resumed, this time the binary is different, and in my vista vm the devices have changed, but they are still not correct, both are now emulated: QEMU HARDDISK ATA Device QEMU QEMU DVD-ROM ATA Device Realtek RTL8139C Andy > > One of the other changes is that logging should appear in the logfile > for that domain.
