Qemu Launcher is a GNOME front-end for the Qemu x86 PC emulator based on GTK. Qemu is a command line application so I wrote this so that Qemu is more accessible from the desktop.

Here are some key features of "Qemu launcher":
Create and save multiple VM configurations
Disk image creation from the GUI using dd, qemu-mkcow, and vmdk2raw for raw, COW, and VMWare converted images respectively.
Provides Qemu console access via xterm
Configurations stored in users home directory in ~/.qemu-launcher
Disk images can be stored anywhere

Requirements:
GTK+ version 2.6.x
Perl - 5.8.8
Gtk2 - 1.121
Gtk2::GladeXML - 1.005
Locale::gettext - 1.05
QEMU - 0.8.1
Needed at build time: gzip,xmllint from libxml2

What's New in This Release:
Blanks are no longer accepted as valid paths to emulator binaries;
Log button state is now correctly reset on VM change;
Switched to Glade 3;
Minor GUI improvements.
