Public bug reported: With Oneiric, I converted to using KDE/Kubuntu, but I still have a lot of Gnome installed. I'm quite sure I used virt-manager under KDE, but something must have changed through updates. Recently, virt-manager became unusable - it can still connect (remote is Ubuntu 10.04 LTS), but when I try to open a VM, I get this:
Error launching details: Configuration server couldn't be contacted: D-BUS error: Method "Set" with signature "s(ib)" on interface "org.gnome.GConf.Database" doesn't exist Traceback (most recent call last): File "/usr/share/virt-manager/virtManager/engine.py", line 741, in _show_vm_helper details = self._get_details_dialog(uri, uuid) File "/usr/share/virt-manager/virtManager/engine.py", line 720, in _get_details_dialog obj = vmmDetails(con.get_vm(uuid)) File "/usr/share/virt-manager/virtManager/details.py", line 477, in __init__ self.refresh_vm_state() File "/usr/share/virt-manager/virtManager/details.py", line 1292, in refresh_vm_state self.toggle_toolbar(self.widget("details-menu-view-toolbar")) File "/usr/share/virt-manager/virtManager/details.py", line 1084, in toggle_toolbar self.config.set_details_show_toolbar(active) File "/usr/share/virt-manager/virtManager/config.py", line 507, in set_details_show_toolbar self.conf.set_bool(self.conf_dir + "/details/show-toolbar", state) GError: Configuration server couldn't be contacted: D-BUS error: Method "Set" with signature "s(ib)" on interface "org.gnome.GConf.Database" doesn't exist This is related to Bug #842478 in that it occurs in the Gnome-specific part of virt-manager. Other Gnome programs like epiphany do not have problems running under KDE. ** Affects: virt-manager (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/889780 Title: Does not work in Kubuntu To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/virt-manager/+bug/889780/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
