Description Bastien Nocera 2007-12-05 16:04:56 UTC
Using KVM, I've not been able to use virt-manager to create a new virtual
machine. It fails setting up the network bridge (I selected the default network
setup, as I'm on a wireless network handled by NetworkManager).

I get this traceback after the disk image has been created:
Unable to complete install '<class 'libvirt.libvirtError'>
virDomainCreateLinux() failed Failed to add tap interface 'vnet-1078634840' to
bridge 'virbr0' : No such device
Traceback (most recent call last):

What host kernel version are you on ? Rawhide kernel is currently fubar for
bridged networking.


Comment 2 Bastien Nocera 2007-12-05 16:13:36 UTC
kernel-2.6.24-0.39.rc3.git1.fc9

Comment 3 Bastien Nocera 2007-12-05 16:14:37 UTC
# /usr/sbin/brctl show
bridge name     bridge id               STP enabled     interfaces

and in dmesg:
virbr0: Dropping NETIF_F_UFO since no NETIF_F_HW_CSUM feature.
virbr0: Dropping NETIF_F_UFO since no NETIF_F_HW_CSUM feature.
