[Bug 202432] Re: Unable to use anything but usermode networking
Well... I just set up a test partition with Intrepid and found myself in the same situation as many users on this bug: my user is added to the right group, I logged out and back in, virt-manager works but I can't press + add to add new virtual networks unless I run as root. From what I understand the virt-manager -c qemu:///system is no longer necessary as it seems to be the default, but I tried never the less and it does not make a difference. If I connect this, I see a default network but I cannot edit it or add a new one. What do I need to do to get this functionality? -- Unable to use anything but usermode networking https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/202432 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

If your user has access to /var/run/libvirt/libvirt-sock then virt- manager 0.5.3-0ubuntu10 (or newer) will attempt to connect to qemu:///system automagically. -- Unable to use anything but usermode networking https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/202432 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 202432] Re: Unable to use anything but usermode networking
Same here, added myself to the proper groups, but the virtual networks tab is greyed out in virt-manager, unless I run it with sudo, but then I can't acces my VM that i created in localhost(User) since with sudo it connects to localhost(System). Is it the recommended way of running KVM/QEMU as root? -- Unable to use anything but usermode networking https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/202432 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

I should read better. virt-manager -c qemu:///system does work, but there should be a GUI way in virt-manager to connect to there. -- Unable to use anything but usermode networking https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/202432 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 202432] Re: Unable to use anything but usermode networking
Hi guys, I have the same problem, I have added myself to libvirtd group, but Virtual Networks tab from Host Details window in virt-manager is grey. I am able to list virtual network connection with the command line anyway: $ virsh -c qemu:///system net-list Connecting to uri: qemu:///system Name State Autostart - default active yes Of course if I run virt-manager as root I am able to list and configure virtual networks! -- Unable to use anything but usermode networking https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/202432 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

BTW, I'm trying to install Debian Lenny, and it can see the virtual DHCP server and get an IP, but it can't actually connect anywhere. This could be a misconfiguration on my part, of course.

[Bug 202432] Re: Unable to use anything but usermode networking
A documented and GUI-accessible means of permitting users access to virtiualization is needed. I suggest that an enhancement be made to User Settings to control group access for virtualization.

[Bug 202432] Re: Unable to use anything but usermode networking
I'm not able to configure virtual networks unless I run virt-manager as root. This also then runs kvm as root. Is there a way around this?

[Bug 202432] Re: Unable to use anything but usermode networking
The guide at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/KvmVirtManagerEtc instructs us to do: $ virt-manager -c qemu:///system Adding my username to the libvirtd group and initializing my view of qemu (with the above command), all network configuration works as expected. The need to type in this command is counter-intuitive for the users. Two simple enhancements would solve this bug: 1. Provide a UI for the user to add themselves to system groups 'kvm,libvirtd' 2. Provide a UI for the user to run virt-manager and connect to qemu:///system I understand using the terminal to enter commands from a guide for advanced settings. These are basic settings which should have GUI accessibility. -- Unable to use anything but usermode networking https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/202432 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

I found https://wiki.ubuntu.com/KvmVirtManagerEtc. The solution was to add myself to the libvirtd group and to add qemu:///system in virt- manager. It would be nice if both of these things happened automatically for the user who installed virt-manager. -- Unable to use anything but usermode networking https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/202432 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
