well, IMHO the branch of your choice should be the
upcoming 2.2.x branch, which will be a stable branch
with devel features ...

a prerelease is already available here:

that somewhat looks like your guest config has the
'evil' lock flag set, which wasn't used before, but
is kind of 'misused' right now ...

if it is beforementioned flag, please remove it and
everything should be fine. note: you can remove it
right now, as it doesn't make any sense with the
older kernel either ...

well, we are at 0.30.211 on the verge to 0.30.212
the 0.30.204 version must be roughly 3 years old now

get newer packages, there should be 0.30.210/11 in
backports, 0.30.204 will require all kind of legacy
options to work ...

best,
Herbert
