Subject: Re: Linux 6.8.4

It is this option: support for Microsoft hyper v emulation in the 
virtualization menu. It was added with this commit:

commit b4f69df0f65e97fec439130a0d0a8b9c7cc02df2

    KVM: x86: Make Hyper-V emulation optional

If I enable this option, there is no problem to run windows guests with 
QEMU.

Best regards,

François Valenduc
