So I tried the F18 vexpress XFCE image and kernel on QEMU, using the most recent nightly from scotland.proximity.on.ca.

It has a (probably) different problem from the F17 release images I've tried previously. I can successfully get it booted to an XFCE session. When I try to do a yum upgrade, it has serious network performance problems. It actually had connection timeouts talking to archive.kernel.org and mirrors.rit.edu, among others. I have no trouble talking to those servers from the host, and get high bandwidth and low latency, so I don't know any reason why the performance in QEMU should be so abysmal.

I presume that this stuff works much better on real hardware?
