The confusion lies in the fact that the version(s) of qemu are different. Current qemu releases (more recent than in the ports tree) do not run on OpenBSD (have not been able to solve this yet *sigh*) so the above person has Linux running natively and OpenBSD inside a newer qemu. Originally it was kvm that had this bug but looks like qemu is now bug-for-bug compatible with this in recent versions of qemu. Whee. -- Todd Fries ..
