as others also stated, qemu monitor is also available through vnc. maybe your vnc client blocks ALT. i have to click on the titlebar and choose "Alt" (realvnc). but mostly i do redirect montior to a socket. with this command line switches: -monitor unix:/var/run/kvm-<vm-name>,server,nowait i then connect with a tool called socat (socat stdio /var/run/kvm-<vm- name>). don't try to exit the console with "quit". :) - Thomas -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe kvm" in the body of a message to [EMAIL PROTECTED] More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
