I'm having this same problem in Jaunty (9.04). I tried to follow the instructions on https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WindowsXPUnderQemuHowTo, and I have the kqemu-source and kqemu-common installed. These instructions worked perfectly in Ubuntu 8.04, but after I upgraded to 9.04 (fresh install), I experienced this problem upon trying to re-setup kquemu. Here's the output of the terminal:
