Comment 28 for bug 196850

Something is still not quite right with the Intrepid version.

If I try to create a virtual machine booting from the 'real' cdrom, I get the following message:
libvirtError: virDomainCreateLinux() failed internal error Timed out while reading monitor startup output

It works as expected if I use the ISO image at my home directory.

My user is part of the libvirtd group (128). I also tried running as root with the same result.

I saw some interesting messages on the libvirtd side:
