Gianluca, due to all the twists of this thread, I no longer recall which
libvirt version you are using. Would you remind us?
All signs show that it starts up qemu without setting its auxiliary
group properly (Assuming that your
# groups qemu
qemu : qemu kvm
is just as mine)
I've added libvir-list so the fine folks there could check why qemu
cannot read/write files group-owned by kvm.
Dan.
