Re: [orca-list] virtual machine software

Hi.
I've tried, but it isn't good.
For example jaws just hangs because kvm is so slow, and it takes a very lot 
of time to do just small things, like opening a web page.
Also, I don't think the qemu monitur is accessible, so you can't use a 
cd-rom.
You need to install windows inside gnome, using a gnome-terminal.
If you got a cd with unattended installation information you can install by 
yourself.
