I assume it saves that somewhere, but maybe only in memory. Have you
tried restarting the desktop or rebooting to clear it?
But I can start it from a shell as user root.
How are you doing that differently than the options you list below that
aren't working?
But I can not use "su" or "beesu" to start it
from a user's account:
(virt-manager:28209): Gtk-WARNING **: 12:39:57.414: cannot open display:
:0.0
The root user doesn't have permission to access your display. You could
use xhost to allow it if you want.
