Hi Cole,
I have 2 Virtual Machines here, both running KVM as virtualizer.
Virtual Machine-1
Host - Fedora 12
KVM
libvirt
Vitural Machine-2
Host - Debian 5.0
KVM
libvirt
Previously on Genom desktop of both machines
Applications -> System Tools -> Virtual Machine Manager
starts 2 windows:-
Virtual Machine Manager
Name
localhost (QEMU) - connecting
and
Authenticate
Password for root
After entering root password -> Authenticate
changes;
Virtual Machine Manager
Name
localhost (QEMU)
vm01
vm02
vm03
....
For unknown accident/cause Virtual Machine-2 (Debian 5.0) changes;
Applications -> System Tools -> Virtual Machine Manager
starts only 1 window, without Authenticate window asking for root password.
Virtual Machine Manager
Name
localhost
vm01
vm02
vm03
....
I don't know why? How can I change it back to its original state?
I don't know why either, sorry. Maybe your root password credentials have been
cached, so it isn't asking anymore. If you log out or reboot the box, does
virt-manager ask for the password the next time you run it?
If that doesn't work, I would recommend filing a bug with debian.
