(but just in case, > I'm lzma'ing the entire 1.5G trace data file) I'm pretty much stumped on this. So I decided to try re-creating the vm through virt-manager. Its up and running now. The only to major differences I can see in the old and new config is the machine (-M pc-0.12 vs -M pc-1.0) parameter, and the uuid. The rest of the parameters I played with a lot trying to get it to work by starting up the vm manually from the cli. I can't really see how those two changes would do much of anything considering the other three VM's still are configured to use -M pc-0.12, and they work fine. -- Thomas Fjellstrom thomas@xxxxxxxxxxxxx -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe kvm" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
