Potentially better than copying the /usr/bin/kvm binary to
/usr/bin/kvm.real is to use dpkg-dirvert, then the shell script it's
replaced with (as per Michael R. Hines' suggestion) won't be over-
written on upgrade of the qemu-kvm package:
$ sudo dpkg-divert --add --rename --divert

I see that there is a fix release out there, but it's not clear how has

This is a far less intrusive workaround:
bash$ cd /usr/bin
bash$ mv kvm kvm.real
bash$ cat kvm
#!/bin/bash
exec /usr/bin/kvm.bak -balloon virtio $@
... doesn't require modifying libvirt or anybody else.

I also hit this bug after upgrading to lucid, and found an explanation
of the root of the problem here: http://www.mail-archive.com/libvirt-

The upstream fix is

I'm afraid I'm still having some issues. I'm most likely just missing
some subtle thing entirely...
I edited the apparmor profile, and the vm starts just fine. I update the
memory with both setmaxmem and setmem, however, a virsh dominfo qa-matt
still yields:

This sounds like you need to adjust the libvirtd apparmor profile.

kvm/qemu doesn't enable ballooning by default anymore (the man page still
claims that ballooning is enabled by default) .
There is no easy way to enable it with libvirt.
libvirt should add
