Hi all,
What is the difference between starting virt-manager by "virt-manager" and by "sudo virt-manager"? It seems that there are two copy of virt-manager running in the background.
When I run *"virt-manager",* I got a error of "*Unable to open a connection to the libvirt management daemon. **Libvirt URI is: qemu:///system **Verify that: - The 'libvirtd' daemon has been started*".
Whereas when I run *"sudo virt-manager",* I got a error of *"Error starting Virtual Machine Manager: Failed to contact configuration server; some possible causes are that you need to enable TCP/IP networking for ORBit, or you have stale NFS locks due to a system crash. See **http://projects.gnome.org/gconf/**for information."* ** How should I deal with the two issues respectively? Is there any drawback by simply running "virt-manager"?
You should set up correct permissions for libvirtd (cf. libvirtd.conf, unix_sock_group) and use virt-manager/virsh as unprivileged user.
