Comment 9 for bug 956374

OK, I did some more testing in between last post and logging in again to see your request Serge - changing hardware did not resolve the problem, but removing the VM entirely and recreating it *did*, both on the new hardware and on the old hardware.

At this point my best guess is that something was screwy in the Precise installation, since the bug followed me from hardware to hardware but went away when I deleted and re-created the VM definition itself. Note: the definition is 2 CPUs, 4096MB RAM (of 16GB available), Windows, Server 2008, all else left to default, as created by virt-manager. If it helps, I am using LVM2 and have a 40GB LV defined to use as raw storage for the guest.

I did not blow away the LV or VG from the Precise install when I reverted to Oneiric; I wiped and formatted the system LV but imported the VG and all other LVs as they were from the Precise install.

I don't have the machine in front of me right now, but I'll run apport for you as requested as soon as I'm in front of it again.
