I got qemu with vde working as follows. I built the qemu-kvm from quantal with the attached qemu-vde.debdiff applied. Then set up the qemu vde nic and started qemu as follows:
cat >> /etc/network/interfaces << EOF auto qemutap iface qemutap inet static address 10.0.5.1 netmask 255.255.255.0 vde2-switch - EOF ifup qemutap dnsmasq --strict-order --bind-interfaces --pid- file=/var/run/qemutap.dnsmasq.pid --conf-file= --listen-address 10.0.5.1 --dhcp-range 10.0.5.2,10.0.5.254 --dhcp-lease-max=253 --dhcp-no-override --except-interface=lo --interface=qemutap iptables -A POSTROUTING -s 10.0.5.0/24 -t nat -j MASQUERADE cat >> /etc/dnsmasq.d/qemu << EOF bind-interfaces except-interface=qemutap EOF restart dnsmasq kvm -net nic -net vde,sock=/var/run/vde2/qemutap.ctl -m 1024 -hda x.img -cdrom ubuntu-12.04-alternate-amd64.iso -vnc :1 So perhaps a qemu-vde package should set up a qemuvdetap network as above. ** Patch added: "qemu-vde.debdiff" https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/vde2/+bug/253230/+attachment/3235394/+files/qemu-vde.debdiff -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/253230 Title: qemu-kvm should Build-Depends on libvdeplug2-dev (KVM vde2 support not working) To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/qemu-kvm/+bug/253230/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
