This suggests that you have a custom built qemu in your PATH which is not in libvirt's PATH. What does which qemu-system-x86_64 and /usr/bin/qemu-system-x86_64 -M ? show? My guess is that virt-manager uses qemu 2.1 from your path to detect machine types, chooses the newest available, then asks libvirt to start that VM, but libvirt runs the 2.0 qemu which can't start that newer machine type. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1305191 Title: virt-manager can not create new virtual machine To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/virt-manager/+bug/1305191/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
