Hi Greg. What Xv hack you mentioned earlier? I looked through this 
entire thread and didn't see anything. Also, from my experience in 
playing with it, one is limited to text coming out the virtual serial 
port when running Qemu from a text console. I ran into this problem when 
I attempted running a BSD image, only to find out that its console 
was not set to the virtual port. So unless one can get around using SDL 
as a display and use Ncurses/similar, I'd say I'm out of luck for a 
while.
