works for me also when the user isn't in kvm group (In reply to comment #1) > works for me also when the user isn't in kvm group Are you using qemu-kvm-0.14.1? It used to work recently, so it's likely it was caused by the recent update. Looks like it was fixed in -r1. *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of bug 369187 *** |
kvm no longer starts when run as user, even though I'm in the kvm group. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Run: qemu -enable-kvm Actual Results: $ qemu -enable-kvm open /dev/kvm: Permission denied failed to initialize KVM: Operation not permitted Expected Results: A virtual machine window should pop up
