I'm using kernel 2.6.28-r2 (Gentoo) and kvm-84 (Intel Xeon CPU X7350, x86_64, host and guest OS and kernel are the same) I've normally bound the VNC port to 127.0.0.1:4444 (or 4445, ... if more KVMs are running). But now "netstat -tlpn" doesn't show any KVM bound to localhost. KVM-83 and all other versions before haven't had this problem. I'm always starting the KVMs like this (snippet of the start script): $KVM -m $MEMORY \ -smp $CPU \ -curses \ -daemonize \ -k de \ -vnc "$VNC" \ -monitor "$MONITOR" \ -localtime \ -pidfile /var/run/kvm-$KVMNAME.pid \ -drive file=/data/kvm/kvmimages/$KVMNAME.qcow2,if=virtio,boot=on \ -net nic,vlan=104,model=virtio,macaddr=$MACADDR_B \ -net tap,vlan=104,ifname=tap.b.$KVMNAME,script=no \ -net nic,vlan=96,model=virtio,macaddr=$MACADDR_F \ -net tap,vlan=96,ifname=tap.f.$KVMNAME,script=no $VNC is 127.0.0.1:1 for example. KVM images running fine but no VNC port to connect. Connecting with telnet to the kvm and entering "info vnc" tells me "VNC server disabled". But I haven't disabled it. Additionally after starting a KVM with this script I don't see the cursor of my bash anymore. The screen get's cleared, the prompt appears again and I've to type "exit" on the shell blindly and reconnect to the host to get my cursor back. Thanks for any hints! Robert
