Comment 1 Sitsofe Wheeler 2014-03-27 13:23:41 UTC
The description should have said:
I'm running on VMWare fusion but control center says the Virtualisation is KVM.

Comment 2 Sitsofe Wheeler 2014-04-18 03:16:20 UTC
Reported to and fixed upstream: https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=727161 .

Comment 3 Sitsofe Wheeler 2015-01-25 14:51:55 UTC
This is fixed in Fedora 21's control-center-3.14.2-2.fc21.x86_64 (although VMware should actually be spelt with a lowercase 'w' - http://www.thelowercasew.com/about)
