KVM in 14.1

funboy · 01-05-2014, 02:02 AM

Hello,

I installed the KVM packages from the slackbuilds and it seems the application itself runs, but when I try to install some virtual machine I recieved errors regarding usb bus

Here is the logged errors:

Code:

I additionally installed qemu-kvm/qemu-kvm-1.2.0-x86_64-1alien.txz
and usbredir but the result is the same and the VM cannot be installed.

Here are some more detailes at the error:

Code:

libvirtError: internal error: process exited while connecting to monitor: qemu-system-x86_64: -device usb-tablet,id=input0: No 'usb-bus' bus found for device 'usb-tablet'

Any ideas ?

it seems to me that you're using libvirt/virt-manager: which packages have you installed?

this is the sbopkg queue I use (before launching it I remove Slackware's nc) for installing SBo 14.1 SlackBuilds:

Code:

netcat-openbsd
yajl
vala
tunctl
urlgrabber
gtk-vnc
usbredir
celt051
pyparsing
spice-protocol
spice
libcacard
spice-gtk
device-tree-compiler
qemu
libvirt
libvirt-python
libvirt-glib
ipaddr-py
pygobject3
vte3
virt-manager

funboy · 01-05-2014, 03:57 AM

I installed all of them but netcat-openbsd,now I installed it too, but the result is the same.
qemuProcessWaitForMonitor:1846 : internal error: process exited while connecting to monitor: qemu-system-x86_64: -device usb-tablet,id=input0: No 'usb-bus' bus found for device 'usb-tablet'

ponce · 01-05-2014, 05:16 AM

as you installed multiple versions, what it the output of

Code:

qemu-system-x86_64 --version

FYI, I just tried a CentOS installation with virt-manager using the default options (for the type of the emulated machine I selected Linux - Kernel 2.6.25 or later with virtio, try choosing those) and everything went fine.

this is the qemu log http://pastebin.com/1PfXheq6

I've seen this problem too.

funboy · 01-06-2014, 12:57 PM

I've installed the previous version of the KVM in Slackware 14.0 then but it required different packages. I uninstalled them and installed the new from the Slackbuilds.org
But now when I checked with sbopkg I found new packages like libbonobo which also should be installed but it is not listed in the slackbuilds !?
Anywhere, I installed it but the same result with the "usb-error" when VM is started.

Richard Cranium · 01-06-2014, 02:25 PM

Actually, when I use the virt-manager wizard to create a new RedHat Enterprise 6 VM I get the error funboy posted.

Making a Slackware VM works just fine.

ponce · 01-06-2014, 03:08 PM

I cannot try to install Red Hat Enterprise as I'm not a Red Hat customer, but CentOS worked.

funboy · 01-06-2014, 07:11 PM

Hmm very strange,

When I change the VM type (from RHEL 6 to Other linux with kernel 2.6) I received another message:

Code:

Unable to complete install: 'Controller 'devices' is not wanted, but 'cpu' is co-mounted: Invalid argument'

I am unable to install not only Cent OS but and Slack.
When I tray to install Slack, the message is the same:

Code:

Unable to complete install: 'Controller 'devices' is not wanted, but 'cpu' is co-mounted: Invalid argument'

I have the same problem. Last night I decided to update my kvm and qemu packages, but then - only black screen and some errors. Today I udated to slackware-current64 and then the multilib. Also move the *.new config files over the old ones. After that - everything works just fine. Hope this will help

P.S.: I have problem with virt-manager text - http://robert.penz.name/wp-content/u...rt-manager.png. Any ideas how to fix that?

maybe you just need to reboot.

uBoTo · 01-16-2014, 01:19 PM

No, the problem is since I first installed virt-manager. I found one solution, but it is for X forwarding on Red Hat. There were missing fonts (dejavu-lgc-sans-fonts) that need to be installed.

The only one warning that I have, when starting qemu, is this:

Quote:

Fontconfig warning: "/etc/fonts/conf.d/50-user.conf", line 14: reading configurations from ~/.fonts.conf is deprecated.

From the appropriate web sites:

------------------------
http://wiki.qemu.org/KVM
QEMU 1.3
as of the 1.3 release all qemu-kvm features have been merged into upstream QEMU

http://www.linux-kvm.org/page/Status
Status

KVM is included in the mainline linux kernel since 2.6.20 and is stable and fast for most workloads.

The userspace tools are part of mainline QEMU since 1.3.
-----------------------

AFAIK, you don't need the older kvm and qemu-kvm packages since the old fork has been merged back into newer releases of teh kernel and qemu. You only need them for older 2.6 kernels and qemu <= 1.2

I'm getting similar errors when trying to install a Windows 7 guest with a Slackware64 14.1 multilib host. I tried changing the display from SPICE To VNC but it doesn't seem to help. I've also tried upgrading to the cairo package from -current as suggested here, no luck.

If I try to install a Slackware guest, the display comes up just fine.

Here is the error I'm receiving:

Code:

Unable to complete install: 'internal error: process exited while connecting to monitor: qemu-kvm: -device usb-tablet,id=input0: No 'usb-bus' bus found for device 'usb-tablet'
'

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/usr/share/virt-manager/virtManager/asyncjob.py", line 100, in cb_wrapper
    callback(asyncjob, *args, **kwargs)
  File "/usr/share/virt-manager/virtManager/create.py", line 1920, in do_install
    guest.start_install(False, meter=meter)
  File "/usr/share/virt-manager/virtinst/Guest.py", line 1134, in start_install
    noboot)
  File "/usr/share/virt-manager/virtinst/Guest.py", line 1202, in _create_guest
    dom = self.conn.createLinux(start_xml or final_xml, 0)
  File "/usr/lib64/python2.7/site-packages/libvirt.py", line 2901, in createLinux
    if ret is None:raise libvirtError('virDomainCreateLinux() failed', conn=self)
libvirtError: internal error: process exited while connecting to monitor: qemu-kvm: -device usb-tablet,id=input0: No 'usb-bus' bus found for device 'usb-tablet'

And this is the queue file I used to install virt-manager:

Code:

gnome-python2-gconf
vte3
tunctl
urlgrabber
ipaddr-py
pyobject3
vala
gtk-vnc
libdaemon
avahi
libcap-ng
libssh2
yajl
libvirt
libvirt-glib
usbredir
libcacard
celt051
spice-protocol
pyparsing
spice
spice-gtk
libvirt-python
virt-manager

I can't try connecting to the display using another VNC client because the virtual machine isn't installed yet. I get the error as soon as I click "Begin Installation". I'm attaching two screenshots (it also seems it isn't picking up my Oxyfaenza KDE icon theme or QtCurve theme, although other GTK programs pick it up just fine)

Any ideas?
