Bug Description
Binary package hint: qemu-kvm
I've got a few guests that are setup to use the local SDL window rather than VNC. With the last update to kvm it has broken in one of two ways (which one it decides to use seems random)
1) My whole console goes black and the music player I'm running stops
2) The guest fails to start with an error of 'failed to retrieve chardev info' from qemu
In /var/log/
LC_ALL=C PATH=/usr/
char device redirected to /dev/pts/6
No protocol specified
No protocol specified
Could not initialize SDL - exiting
This was working fine yesterday prior to the kvm 1:84+dfsg-

Oops, forgot to say. I'm running this from virt-manager and the exact text of the chardev error is:

if ret == -1: raise libvirtError ('virDomainCreate() failed', dom=self)
libvirtError: operation failed: failed to retrieve chardev info in qemu with 'info chardev'
