Two different daemons? > In system mode, the daemon runs as root. It is the preferable option, default when connecting as root, supports more features than session mode. In session mode, the daemon runs under the user who connects, some features might not work. There are many differences which I wouldn't be able to explain here, but I will direct you to http://libvirt.org/drvqemu.html where more on that can be found.

What's the info in the logs now when you can access them? (my previous explanation was aimed at system mode)
