If some is able to find better and nore modern video, on subject, im all in. If you care about Linux KVM, there is some more info: to solve biggest problem of Virtualization gaming which is not good enough videocards. QEMU also advantages for emulation for more modern OS, but you only on Linux, where through KVM can Pass through PCI/ PCI-E devices as videocards. Networking is also working fine.Īs bonus there is some experimental 3Dfx support (kjliew projects.), to be honest, i had problems to keep it working, because its not play nice with other Virtualizers on same machine and even that results was quite slow, but it could improve overtime - details: QEMU 3Dfx Glide Pass-Through (WHPX/KVM works!!!) you can emulate old PS/2 ports machine and there is some SB16 virtual device and virtual VGA compatible video cards. Well on paper everything should be ready.
Why have sense to mess with QEMU and Dos? + with QEMU in general For example there is not for years any good GUI QEMU manager for Windows, so you have make some ungly very long command to start up you machine. and even if they are working, they are not presented in nice shinny package. because lots of thing are not working, half-working, bugged not implemented. and lots of inbuild virtual devices), which has its disadvantages.
Tts probably most ambitions software project (it has realtime instruction translation from x86 to ARM, Power PC etc. to be honest, Qemu was for me always last change, because is not for me user friendly and i have not good experience with this project. I spend some time with fiddling around Qemu DOS machine as other alternative to Dosbox,PCem, Vmware workstation, Virtual box.
