Package: virt-manager Severity: important 1. I configured a kvm guest to use a local sdl window. 2. I then tried to boot the vm 3. this did not work - I got an error stating "libvirtError: operation failed: failed to retrieve chardev info in qemu with 'info chardev'" 4. I chowned my Xauthority file to be owned by my user and the libvirt group - (and chmoded it 640). 5. I tried to launch the vm again. 6. - I encountered this --> "commandline read: virtio-blk-pci,b : Traceback (most recent call last): File "/usr/share/virt-manager/virtManager/engine.py", line 808, in run_domain vm.startup() File "/usr/share/virt-manager/virtManager/domain.py", line 1296, in startup self._backend.create() File "/usr/lib/python2.6/dist-packages/libvirt.py", line 333, in create if ret == -1: raise libvirtError ('virDomainCreate() failed', dom=self) libvirtError: internal error process exited while connecting to monitor: char device redirected to /dev/pts/18 " and the vm doesn't boot. The /dev/pts/18 'file' has the following permissions: crw--w---- 1 myuser tty 136, 18 Feb 5 12:06 /dev/pts/18
