</div>Ok, thanks.<br>
Is it a bug of only virt-manager setting or also involving qemu-kvm<br>
command line?<br>
I try to explain better:<br>
- viewing the xml definition, I can see that my vm indeed has the acpi<br>
setting in features section<br>
- does this mean that win7 starts with acpi enabled from qemu-kvm<br>
point of view?<br>
<br>
running with --help I can see<br>
QEMU emulator version 0.14.0 (qemu-kvm-0.14.0), Copyright (c)<br>
2003-2008 Fabrice Bellard<br>
<br>
and<br>
i386 target only:<br>
-win2k-hack use it when installing Windows 2000 to avoid a disk full bug<br>
-no-fd-bootchk disable boot signature checking for floppy disks<br>
-no-acpi disable ACPI<br>
<br>
Does this mean that acpi is set by default in qemu-kvm and when in an<br>
updated virt-manager I uncheck acpi setting this will involve to run<br>
the qemu-kvm process with "-no-acpi" ?<br>
<br>
what is it exactly intended with "i386 target"?<br>
In recent virt-manager, even if I create a 32bit win7 guest, by<br>
default the hypervisor settings are:<br>
Hypervisor: kvm<br>
Architecture: x86_64<br>
Emulator: /usr/bin/qemu-kvm<br>
<br>
I have to force i686 during guest creation....<br>
Thanks,<br>
Gianluca<br>
<br>
BTW: I notice that while I'm creating a test vm to experiment, in<br>
version virt-manager-0.8.6-1.fc14.noarch, I'm unable to delete the<br>
newly created guest (the option is greyed out). i have to run<br>
virsh undefine testvm<br>
Instead, pre-existing guests have the option to delete...<br>
Is this already tracked or do I have to open a bug?<br></blockquote><div><br></div><div>Gianluca, what does the device manager of the virtual system show as your computer? Is it ACPI Multiprocessor PC? Can you confirm if qemu enabled the ACPI support by default.</div>
