Well, for me, I upgraded from Mandriva, and AFAIK there has been no new 
release of dynamips in the past year =&gt; grab the package from Mandriva for 
nwo, and log an enhancement bug (you can assign to me) for dynamips.


&gt;<i> no patched qemu (no virtualization support

</I>&gt;<i> for package maintainers <A HREF="http://forum.gns3.net/post11571.html">http://forum.gns3.net/post11571.html</A> UDP patched

</I>
Can you provide a bit more information on what GNS3 feature needs this patched 
qemu? I have in the past hooked up my kvm VMs to dynamips routers (before 
GNS3).

Is this for Pix emulation, or just for launching generic virtual 
machines/emulated hardware as part of your lab?

I really don't think the Pix emulation (I have never seen a maintained patch) 
is ready for anyone to include it ... but I haven't looked recently.

&gt;<i> 
</I>&gt;<i> We must fix the package and provide at least not so heavy broken ones...
</I>&gt;<i> 
</I>&gt;<i> I've prepared new version of GNS3, included into svn dynamips
</I>
Did you base it on the existing Mandriva package?

&gt;<i> and
</I>&gt;<i> xdotool (this one suggested) - these I can maintain with my mentor, so I
</I>&gt;<i> ask for patch qemu in stable versus UDP support.

Buchan
