This is not a QEMU bug but a problem with privately built QEMU binaries for Windows.
http://qemu.weilnetz.de/w32/old/qemu-w32-setup-20131116.exe now includes support for curses, but failed to add the necessary pdcurses.dll. http://qemu.weilnetz.de/w32/qemu-w32-setup-20131118.exe includes the missing dll. ** Changed in: qemu Status: New => Invalid ** Changed in: qemu Assignee: (unassigned) => Stefan Weil (ubuntu-weilnetz) -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of qemu- devel-ml, which is subscribed to QEMU. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1252011 Title: needs pdcurses.dll to start Status in QEMU: Invalid Bug description: QEMU version: 1.6.90.0 from 2013 11 16 Host OS: Windows XP SP3 x86 Host machine: 3.2 GHz AMD Athlon 64 dual core processor, 4 GB DDR II (3.2 seen by the OS) memory Guest OS: Grub4Dos boot manager menu Problem: it needs pdcurses.dll and it won't start without it.
