Copied from #11271 and #11378

Some findings of the QEMU-KVM issue on Ubuntu 10.10.

The QEMU-KVM hung during booting up meego-netbook kernel. The netbook kernel is
2.6.35 with some Intel patches. I did below test:

QEMU:
1, qemugl in MeeGo 1.1 SDK, which version is 0.12.4
2, qemu installed from Ubuntu 10.10 repo, which version is 0.12.5

Kernel:
a, handset netbook kernel in MeeGo 1.1 release, major version is 2.6.35
b, Ubuntu 10.10 kernel, major version is 2.6.35

                    Result
1 to boot a FAIL
1 to boot b SUCCESS
2 to boot a FAIL
2 to boot b SUCCESS

So the problem is quite like that MeeGo kernel has something special which
cannot work well with the KVM in Ubuntu 10.10 host kernel.
