|    Haiku slow on qemu    |
|    17 Sep 09 20:04:30    |
      From: ank@spamfence.net              I downloaded haiku-alpha-gcc4.image and trying to run it in qemu. It's       sluggish (1.6 GHZ AMD64, supposed to be 2.6 in Pentium measurements as       far as I know) but just 1 GB RAM.              I run it on Ubuntu Linux. There is just Gnome running after a fresh boot.              I wasn't able to start it in Virtualbox (how?) to see if it would be       faster.              Cool would be to boot this image via grub. But as far as I check Google       results you can't, need to install it into a blank partition (or USB       stick, may be another thing I'm going to try).              Well in qemu it takes long to boot. Sometimes I have to do slow mouse       clicks as it seems not to recognize quick clicks like on Linux or       Windows. It also takes about 90 secs to load Bezilla. And most scary, the       clock starts running fast. After about 15 minutes it's about 1 minute in       the future and seems to accelerate, so after 30 minutes it's 3-4 minutes       already.              Any idea?       --       Andreas (PGP Key available on public key servers)       54.
