[Tutorial] How to install Virt-Manager Correctly on EOS/Arch base systems

Nothing on libvirt networking?

Isn’t that the bit most people get stuck on?

That was not the scope. The main scope of this is to install and get virt-manager running with a vm. Nothing else.

EDIT: If you’re talking about the default virtual network not working. How to configure that is in the article. Just has to follow the steps it will start to work. Just has to follow from step 4.

Probably a link to Arch Wiki can suffice then, which then links to a really good article on it.

https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/Libvirt#Networks

Setting up network bridges and virtual networks are pretty important, albeit a bit convoluted to achieve.

I’ll just add the link myself, saves a click …

https://jamielinux.com/docs/libvirt-networking-handbook/

As I said the network configuration is under step 4 onwards without doing those the default nor the bridge will work.

Edit made: Added, “This will also enable the libvirt networking components as well without doing this it won’t work.”. So people can easily realize what enables the networks.

Just a little post to express a big thank you!

Inspired by this thread, your tutorial got me started on Qemu/Virt-Manager to day.

The whole Segment shouldnt be necessary on a standard endeavouros install.

gpasswd -a libvirt < username >

should be enough.

This isn’t the first time i used virt-manager. Done all that… many times. It just doesn’t work. I’ll stick with v-box and or vmware.

What? Wrong thread? Or what are you talking about :grinning_face_with_smiling_eyes:

Sorry… Got the wrong thread. :upside_down_face:

You really should understand why I wrote that entire segment. I covered remote access as well. Just adding the user libvirt group is not gonna work in a broader spectrum. Also, changing the user and user group within the conf file allows QEMU/Virt-manager to run with users needing to enter their password in order to access the system units.

The tutorial was written after going through all the pains of correctly configuring and getting the vit-manager to work on an EndeavourOS system. The one I’m using right now as my daily driver.

The command is another way to add the user to the libvert group. I agree that it would work to some degree but if a user wants to go beyond then your comment is misleading them. That might work for you but I’m pretty sure it won’t work for most.

This is not the first time I’ve seen you discrediting someone and just jumping googling something and putting on the post regardless it helps or not. You have been doing this to a lot of senior contributors. Remember this we’re tolerant but there is a limit to our tolerance.

What? I dont want to discrediting someone, i just wanted to mention that the whole segment shouldnt be necessary. Ok now with your answer you explained why, and its totaly ok. but in the OP you dont mentioned that.

I think you are referring to “gpasswd -a”. What is the Problem with gpasswd? Its do exactly the same like usermod -a -G. In fact there are way more ways how to add a user to a group. I wanted to say only that adding the user to the libvirt group should be enough (but you explained it anyway).

I’m sorry and want to apologize if you felt offended in any way. As I said, I just wanted to suggest something based on the information I got from the OP.

After following all the steps to the letter, my computer can’t start qemu. It’s like it is not there. Running qemu in terminal provides

[olividir@HP-Gaming ~]$ qemu
bash: qemu: command not found

But if I try to install it again, I get

[olividir@HP-Gaming ~]$ sudo pacman -S qemu
[sudo] password for olividir: 
warning: qemu-6.2.0-2 is up to date -- reinstalling

So for me qemu is installed, but it is not installed?

Check the files that get installed with the package qemu:

pacman -Ql qemu

You wanted to know if qemu is installed? There you have it.
If you want to manage your VM:s from command line, then perhaps some one else might be better suited to assist you. And preferably in a new thread.

I just want to use the VM, I’ll make a new thread.

Then just find the Virtual Machine Manager in your application menu and launch it.

QEMU is the hypervisor you should launch virt-manager from the menu. Which will give a GUI to manage your VM’s and create new VM’s.
