Hello,

I tried building some images overnight with the latest master, and could not get them to run this morning with qemu - I got an odd error that a VNC server was started instead?

Just on a hunch, I reverted the following commits:

qemu: Fix broken accidental path move
qemu-git: Drop GL passthrough support qemu-0.15: Drop GL passthrough support

rebuilt qemu-native, and now qemu works correctly.

I have no idea why qemu is trying to fallback on a VNC server, as I did not have one running on my machine. I know we use VNC for our autobuilder sanity tests, but those haven't been integrated into the runqemu scripts as far as I can tell.

This may need further research, I seem to have it working on another machine. I'll report back once I've learned more.

Ok, I can no longer reproduce this issue anymore, even on the original machine. Figures. :-/

Is this perhaps what happens when DISPLAY is not set? Just a guess...

Cheers,
