 | Why acelerated qemu? This was not free before but now it can be

So: Good  news! I was searching at google and I found it was not free, but I 
didnt knew that it's free now. The other 2 packages will be free software too, 
but for now they are not free.

I will re incorporate kqemu from here:

http://linux.ilmainen.net/suomiknoppix/linux-2.6.21/kqemu-modules-2.6.21_1.3.0~pre9-12+2.6.21-10.00.Custom_i386.deb

and for the other kernels

Thanks

More info:

 | KRDesktop is a GPL-ed KDE (QT3) front-end for
 | QEMU.<http://fabrice.bellard.free.fr/qemu/>It provides a GUI interface
 | for running PC emulation (similiar in intent to
 | Virtual PC/VMWare). Written in
 | Kommander<http://www.kde-apps.org/content/show.php?content=12865>,
 | this also serves as a good example of RAD development under linux.
