. Another guest (Ubuntu in native qcow2 image) works fine and reports correct cpu frequency, so I only see this problem with this particular .vmdk image. I’m running QEMU emulator version 0.15.1 (kvm-0.15.1-0.17.3), Copyright (c) 2003-2008 Fabrice Bellard on SLES11-SP2 host (3.0

lockups that you can recommend? What probably was suggested is to disable cpu frequency scaling on the host. Please provide more details on the host system. Host is a Quadcore Xeon HP DL320 G5 with CentOS 5.4, old Kernel 2.6.18-128.7.1.el5. There are no hints toward CPU scaling in /sys
