Hi, it looks like whatever-desktop-envinroment you are using on the *host* system is grabbing the default hot-key sequence to exit from qemu (which is Ctrl+Alt). You may try to start qemu with either "-alt-grab" or "-ctrl-grab", which would change the ungrab sequence to "Ctrl-Shift-Alt" or "Right-Ctrl", respectively. Or instead you can try to execute qemu from an X session without a DM (i.e., started with "xinit /usr/bin/xterm -- :1").
