I'm having trouble with a VM I was using yesterday. After using, I closed the guest and updated my host machine (arch linux). Today I turned on the host and tried to turn on my guest and this message appeared: > Error starting domain: unsupported configuration: chardev 'spicevmc' > not supported without spice graphics > > Traceback (most recent call last): > > File > "/usr/share/virt-manager/virtManager/asyncjob.py", line 72, in > cb_wrapper > callback(asyncjob, *args, **kwargs) > > File "/usr/share/virt-manager/virtManager/asyncjob.py", line 108, in tmpcb > callback(*args, **kwargs) > > File "/usr/share/virt-manager/virtManager/object/libvirtobject.py", line > 57, in newfn > ret = fn(self, *args, **kwargs) > > File "/usr/share/virt-manager/virtManager/object/domain.py", line 1384, in > startup > self._backend.create() > > File "/usr/lib/python3.10/site-packages/libvirt.py", line 1352, in create > raise libvirtError('virDomainCreate() failed') libvirt.libvirtError: unsupported configuration: chardev 'spicevmc' > not supported without spice graphics I'm using a dedicated nvidia card on a manjaro guest OS. **I'm not a linux expert.** Any idea what might be happening and how to fix this? Any other info you need let me know. **UPDATE #1:** I removed the usb spice redirectors from my VM: And now it works fine... I just can't have usb redirectors on the guest OS now... Anyone know why this is and how to fix it?
