-vga vmware doesn't work on either of my wxp guests, nor my w2k guest.

I continue to get triple faults from any Windows XP guest at a particular 
point while booting, when invoked with qemu-system-x86_64.
When invoked with plain qemu, it seems to work just fine.
This is with or without -kqemu or -kernel-kqemu (my athlon 3700+ doesn't do 
kvm).

I've posted about these in the past, and I don't have any additional 
information to add to those (ancient) discussions.  I don't intend to start a 
discussion about them now, this is just a friendly reminder about some 
unresolved issues.

Thanks
