I can create a new vm and the first time I connect to the virtual graphics without any problems. But, if I close the desktop VM, I can't access anymore to the virtual desktop of the VM, it is as if the graphics is freazing.The VM is still alive. What is very strange is that I can connect directly with vnc client on 127.0.0.1 :5900 port. I try to launch virt-manager with " --debug " option, but don't find any interesting errors. > > I've got the same problem if I remotely launch a virt-manager and connect with xen+ssh from another centos 6.5. > > But, I can still connect from a virt-manger launched from a Rh7RC or even from a SLES 11.3. > > I think it becomes from virt-manager or libvirt which come with centos 6.5. I made update and I don't know what's wrong with my CentOS 6.5. Don't find any problems like this with Google ! Hmm, I wonder if it's related to this one: http://marc.info/?l=xen-devel&m=140050749529103 Although since this hasn't even been accepted into upstream libvirt, AFAICT, it's strange that it works with RH7RC and SLES. Can you tell what port virt-manager is trying to connect to? -George
