Running command "dbus-uuidgen --ensure" fixed it, and virt-manager starts OK after that. So this was more for the mailinglist archives, if someone else meets the same issue. That's a bit strange -- maybe there was a post-processing thing added to 6.7 that does this, which my package lacks. I'll take a look at it when I get a chance.

The normal thing following "After open connection callback fd=-1" is "DEBUG: Opening direct TCP connection to display at 127.0.0.1:5901:-1". Can you try virt-viewer -v --debug on 6.6 to see what things look like there? -George _______________________________________________ CentOS-virt mailing list CentOS-virt@xxxxxxxxxx https://lists.centos.org/mailman/listinfo/centos-virt
