Indeed, installing the dconf solved the problem, however there is still another problem that I forgot to mention in my previous post. If you choose from "Preferences" option to display the I/O and disk , nothing is displayed, and when you quit the virt-manager and run it again, then the two options are not checked. I tried to run virt-manager in debug mode but when I tried to connect to a KVM Host, the application hungs Any suggestions? </pre> </blockquote> <pre wrap=""> When you run with --debug, and connect to a remote ssh URI that requires a password, the password prompt is written on the console and you have to enter it there. So I'd recommend trying again with that, and see if there are any errors printed on the console when you click try to activate the disk/network options - Cole </pre> </blockquote> <div class="moz-signature">-- <meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=ISO-8859-1"> <meta name="ProgId" content="Word.Document"> <meta name="Generator" content="Microsoft Word 12"> <meta name="Originator" content="Microsoft Word 12"> <link rel="File-List" href="Maria%20Tsiolakki_files/filelist.xml">  <link rel="themeData" href="Maria%20Tsiolakki_files/themedata.thmx"> <link rel="colorSchemeMapping" href="Maria%20Tsiolakki_files/colorschememapping.xml">  <style>  </style> <div class="WordSection1"> _________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________<o:p></o:p> Maria Tsiolakki<o:p></o:p> Computer Science Department | University of Cyprus<o:p></o:p> ( dir no: ++357 22892727 / central no : ++357 22892700 / fax no : ++357 22892731 / email: Maria.Tsiolakki_AT_cs.ucy.ac.cy )<o:p></o:p> _________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________<o:p></o:p> <o:p> </o:p> <o:p> </o:p> </div> </div> </body> </html>
