Hi
I'm able to run the below command using root permission....
sudo kvm -netdev bridge,br=qbr0ccdca50-fa,id=hostnet -M ppce500 Warning: netdev hostnet has no peer Could not initialize SDL(No available video device) - exiting
However when I'm running the same command without root authority,I'm getting following logs...
