Yeah I think you're right. I did a little bit of testing yesterday and
the echo disappeared until I remembered that I'd been testing a
self-built OpenBIOS - and as soon as I reintroduced this option onto the
command line, the echo magically re-appeared.
I can reproduce this consistently under qemu-system-ppc git master like
this:
make distclean
STRIP= './configure' '--target-list=ppc-softmmu'
'--prefix=/home/build/rel-qemu-git' '--enable-gtk' '--disable-pie'
and then specifying a -bios parameter on the command line (even if it is
the same file as that normally used by QEMU):
$ ./qemu-system-ppc -bios ../share/qemu/openbios-ppc
Now try typing into the GTK monitor window and hopefully you should be
able to see the problem.
ATB,
Mark.
