Re: 4.0 will now load

Decided to try a different QEMU.  QEMU-0.13.0 seems to run Slitaz 4.0 better than QEMU-0.9.0 with the accelerator turned off does.  I have other Linux software that runs better with QEMU-0.9.0 + accelerator.  Its older though..  The problem with Xorg remains.  No matter what I try I can only get 800x600.  This is very annoying.  Also either Midori or Yahoo Mail is pushing the CPU to 100%.  This is the virtual CPU I guess.
