I tried (both with static and dynamic ip):
$ qemu-system-x86_64 -enable-kvm -m 2048 -nic
user,dns=8.8.8.8,model=virtio -drive
file=devuanstable.qcow2,media=disk,if=virtio -monitor stdio

Although resolv.conf was set to 8.8.8.8 strangely that didnt work. If i
changed to 10.0.2.2 it will work.(by work i mean my internet testing
with $sudo tracerout devuan.org)

I say strangely because when i start my vm with:
$ qemu-system-x86_64 -enable-kvm -m 2048 -nic
user,model=virtio -drive
file=devuanstable.qcow2,media=disk,if=virtio -monitor stdio

Now if i changed to 8.8.8.8 it will work!

Alexandros.
