Description Cole Robinson 2011-03-31 15:27:05 UTC
Original report:

https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=677020

If running virt-manager as non-root without the --no-fork/--debug option (the default invocation), the app will hang when trying to launch another dialog like, like guest console/details, new VM wizard, etc.

Details are in the other bug report, but since there is a workaround in virt-manager (move gconf init after the fork), we can use this bug to track that.
