What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. install windows millenium (they work perfectly stable by the way)
2. in the control panel the the bios is not pnp so all device drivers must be 
installed manually 


What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?
0.9.4

Please provide any additional information below.
so the graphics adapter suported in limbo is just a plain vga one? no svga 
suported yet?  if yes whats the graphics adapter (so ican install drivers)
is there a way or do you plan to implement a pnp bios? (like dosbox has) 

thank you

What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. Run any system with CoreDuo CPU type (supposed to have 2 cores)
2. Check CPU usage in Android - for Quad-core device it will be only 25%

Please add ability to set number of CPUs in VM! And make Limbo utilize several 
cores (qemu should do that easily)

Hi

How can I enable KVM support ?

Enable TSC feature for Pentium+ cpus as an option for ICS and above devices only

What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. Comment by a.j.c.marce, Feb 28, 2013
Hi, my name is Julian and I'm use hacker's keyboard with Limbo on my LG P970; i 
have the next problem: Don't recognize the "<" and ">" symbols. I'm use Minix 
and Debian on Limbo and i was probe with all .map files on the Keymap directory 
for fix this in bout OSs. I use that OSs only in shell mode. I try change the 
language in Hacker's Keyboard, and so, modify values on limbo/Keysmap/(common, 
en-us, es (I am Argentinian), and others files in the same directory). The 
wrong Symbols are:

<:" Γ " and >:" Є " in Minix.

<:" \n " and >:" \b " in Debian

The scan codes in Limbo files look Ok but the error stay.

Sorry for the badbadbad english guys, and thanks.

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?


What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?


Please provide any additional information below.

Programm is very cool, best x86 emulator ever, fast and user-friendly!
I have few question to you
1) Is it possible to increase efficiency of emulation? are you planning to do 
it?
2) Does it support multicore host processors?
3) Does it support x86 host processor (how it affect emulation efficiency?)
4) Are you planning to support guest arm processors?

Thank you

1. Create a qcow2 image from Limbo
2. Install DSL in the above image
3. Restart VM
4. Booting up fails with Error: Grub Loading. Read Error and VM requires 
restart. Sometimes error is 15,16,17,25. 

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?
Should read boot sector and boot image without errors

Please use labels and text to provide additional information.

Trackpad mouse motions should be interpreted as relative mouse positions so 
they don't get blocked by the boundary checks. Use flag for relative mouse 
position in SDL.

Particularly with Windows images, although also with linux images. A partial 
bios message is seen and the image doesn't boot. I'd the full bios message is 
seen then it will generally boot.

Placeholder for performance enhancement:

I just want to build qemu-system-i386 only,for android,which I can run a linux 
kernel in terminal and lightweight. how can I do?

Best Regards.

1. Take a virtual HD with XP installed ( 3giga + format = *.img )
2. Start VM
3. Then nothing

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?


LIMBO ANDROID 4.0


virtual HD works fine with QEMU on linux or XP ( 3giga + format = *.img )

When i add HD XP in second HD, no boot for WINDOWS 2000 PRO which works fine 
(size = 2G and *.img format)

What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. I launch vm... (xp sp3)
2. All right..
3. I save vm state.
4. All ok...
5. I resume vm state (last saved)
6. It's only a screenshot, no snapshot. :(

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?
I've a screenshot no a snapshot. Only frozen image (yes... I try to enable the 
mouse etc..)

What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?
XP sp3, but OS is indifferent. Limbo version I'm using is 0.99

Please provide any additional information below.
Sometimes resume vm works. So I save a lot of vm state before turn off the 
machine an after I try to resume the worjing state.

PS: I really apreciate the project, how can I continue it?

What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. Try to prepare a hard drive using fdisk
2. Format disk
3. Try to install Windows 95

Expected: Working Windows 95 installation like it was possible with my former 
ASUS Memopad HD 7 (Android 4.2). 

Instead: Setup failing to continue at different stages: 

- right after format using fdisk with message "unable to write boot sector"
- on using hard disks prepared by Qemu or Virtualbox on a PC: neither a 
formatted raw hard disk worked on trying to install win95 nor a full 
installation (which was working before on the PC)

I used the latest version available from Google Play (May 2013) on Android 4.3.

Additional information: Even Puppy Linux was sometimes crashing. Only Kolibri 
seemed to work properly. (But it needs no hard disk to work.)

What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. Install dos 6.22
2. Install himem and emm386 in autoexec
3. Only 4k memory allocated

also tried trilinux and did not work.

When trying to select an image, it doesn't show files with upper-case 
extensions, like .IMG

What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. From Wiki comments: 
Comment by catlak.profesor.mfb, Mar 9, 2013
I have found a bug. When there is a no virtual machines and when you click on 
delete machine, the program crashes. I think you can fix that easily.
