Bug Description

Specifically the instructions in https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WindowsXPUnderQemuHowTo
appear to be necessary with respect to creating udev configuration and modprobe configuration.

One fix is to update the file

vmhost206:/usr/share/doc/kqemu-common/README.Debian and mention this
or make the package already do the appropriate creation of /dev/kqemu

I tried this on AMD64/ Ubuntu 7.04
