This image is known to work on real hardware (and it runs pretty fast), but it
most likely won't work properly on bochs, qemu (without accelerator) or other
emulators without virtualisation.

The reason for this is that there's a race condition in KDE, between cpu and
timer.  When cpu is too slow in comparison with timer, a timeout routine is
launched.  If the difference is huge, it will even cause a floating point
exception.  This happens because strong compression is being used by Ging 0.1.x,
so unless it runs on a real CPU, don't expect it to work.

If you use qemu with accelerator module (either the free or non-free versions)
or any other virtualisator everything should be fine.
