[virt-tools-list] virt-manager does not save connections

[Maria Tsiolakki]

Hello Cole

Many thanks for your reply.
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?


Best regards

Maria
