Description Steve Dickson 2007-11-07 20:34:19 UTC
Description of problem:
Using virt-manager to create a KVM guest hangs with
the latest F7 kernel (2.6.23.1-21.fc7). 

Virt-manager does not hang when booting the
older F7 kernel (2.6.23.1-10.fc7).

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
python-virtinst-0.200.0-3.fc7
libvirt-0.3.3-1.fc7
libvirt-python-0.3.3-1.fc7
virt-manager-0.4.0-2.fc7


How reproducible:
All the time.

Steps to Reproduce:
1.fire up virt-manager
2.try opening a kvm client
3.
  
Actual results:
When the 'run' button is clicked in the console windown
both virt-mananger windows hang. 

Killing virt-mananger and restarting it show the kvm client as up
and running but when a seconde console window is opened
both windows again hang

Expected results:

Does it hang just running a guest with qemu-kvm directly?

Comment 2 Steve Dickson 2007-11-08 11:20:21 UTC
I've never been able to figure out how to run
qemu-kvm directory (i.e. w/o virt-manager). So
if there is a HOWTO you can point me to, it would
be much appreciated! 

But... that scratch build you pointed me to:
http://koji.fedoraproject.org/scratch/katzj/task_229731/
(kvm-36-7.fc7) did seem to do the trick. I no longer see 
the hang.
