            When configuring the VM, I gave it the official windows ISO which was located in my /home/.../Downloads folder.

            The problem was that the file browser inputted file://home/... instead of just /home/..., so I changed it and it worked thereafter.

            virt manager - how to prevent mouse capture when using vnc
            Asked 2021-Feb-01 at 10:38

            I am running lineage os in kvm using virt-manager. When using the Spice Server, there seem to be problems with the mouse (its jumping around). So I am using the VNC Server.

            When using Spice, I can prevent capture of the mouse by installing spice client in the guest (I don't know if that is possible with lineage OS).

            But how can I archive the same when using VNC Server? How can I prevent virt-manager to capture the mouse when using VNC Server?

            Sometimes virsh and qemu see different things. This is occasionally because one of them is blind, and less frequently because one of them is hallucinating. In this case I believe virsh is blind. Try this:

            Setting up PulseAudio in QEMU
            Asked 2020-Oct-28 at 19:08

            I have a Windows 10 Pro virtual machine using KVM. It is set up through virt-manager using the latest version of libvirt and QEMU. All of this is running on Manjaro Linux 20. Manjaro defaults to using PulseAudio for its audio output (at least for Manjaro 20). I was wondering if there is a way to use PulseAudio with libvirt/QEMU/KVM to have an audio pass-through from the guest OS to the host. Meaning that anything that is playing in the Guest OS will need to be heard through the default output device in Manjaro Linux. First, I tried setting environment variables to set it up, but that didn't work, and it also is deprecated past QEMU 4.1 (I am using 5.1.) Then, I tried using this tutorial, which ended up somehow bricking Manjaro, and I had to reinstall. I am currently using the default Spice server through virt-manager. I have heard that the Spice server introduces lots of overhead, and I can't afford that. I need every CPU cycle, and if PulseAudio is already running, I may as well use it. My libvirt XML config WITHOUT the Spice server is as follows:

            Anytime you see an error like that from libvirt it indicates an error reporting bug, so please report a bug with ubuntu.

            The VM creation may be failing for legitimate reasons but it's tough to tell without libvirt reporting a good error
