Yeah, that's the row I mean. If it opens and shows VMs, sounds like that is what you want. It might not be asking for root passwd twice because it is caching the auth credentials: depends on what policykit version is installed.
virt-manager only asks for the root passwd to connect to the libvirt qemu driver: sounds like it is doing that, so not sure if there is something else you want.
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. - Cole
