I tried it in a VirtualBox. Runs smoother than the emulator from the Android Dev...

Which image did you boot from? I'm trying to run this within qemu, but I never managed to get network working.

The android emulator works fine and running any linux distro inside qemu likewise.

I'm using something like this:

  kvm -soundhw es1370 -net nic -net user \
  -cdrom android-x86-2.2-r2-asus_laptop.iso

and when pressing ctrl-alt-2 i get:

  QEMU 0.14.0 monitor - type 'help' for more information
  (qemu) info network
  VLAN 0 devices:
    user.0: net=10.0.2.0, restricted=n
    rtl8139.0: model=rtl8139,macaddr=52:54:00:12:34:56
  Devices not on any VLAN:
  (qemu)

but network doesn't work and I'm unable to change the network settings from the android configuration menu.

I used the eeepc image. There's a guide describing the necessary settings: http://www.android-x86.org/documents/virtualboxhowto
