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...
kvm -netdev bridge,br=qbr0ccdca50-fa,id=hostnet -M ppce500
failed to create tun device: Operation not permitted
failed to launch bridge helper
kvm: -netdev bridge,br=qbr0ccdca50-fa,id=hostnet: Device 'bridge'
could not be initialized
I need to run the above command without root authority.Please help
regarding this.
Search for qemu-bridge-helper and you should find information about the
ACL file that needs to be setup for this to work properly. For example,
this has a short description, but doesn't sound like it's intended to be
