Bug Description
Binary package hint: qemu-launcher
with kqemu installed, qemu-launcher does not know how to invoke qemu with full acceleration. instead it gives output like this:
/usr/bin/qemu -boot c -m 512 -hda '/home/
/usr/bin/qemu: invalid option -- '-kernel-kqemu'
and exits immediately.
might be a bug in qemu, don't know enough about its command line arguments to judge. thanks.

It looks like, since i'm on a 64-bit machine, I need to go to "launcher settings" and change "path to qemu" from /usr/bin/qemu to /usr/bin/ qemu-system- x86_64. qemu-launcher should be smarter about auto-detecting the type of system its on and figuring out how to load kqemu for me. I'd appreciate hearing if you have to do something similar on x86 (32 bit) or not. The guest images I am running, for the record, are all 32 bit x86.
