Thank you, thank you, THANK YOU!!! This is very encouraging, and very
timely. It worked on my hardware-assisted VM processor running Wheezy
and Qemu, done with KatolaZ' 4 step instructions and Svante's
-enable-kvm suggestion. The Xfce front end worked very well, and was an
excellent choice. The fonts were perfect for a Qemu hosted app. It's a
great proof of concept.

I have a few suggestions for software that should be added to its
repository as soon as possible, in order to assist evaluators in their
troubleshooting and enhancement tasks:

* screen and tmux (hopefully with a pointer to a tmux cheat-sheet)
* Some sort of light weight graphical vim (vim-gtk?)
* Guake or Tilda fullscreen terminal
