Ok thanks :)


How does gnome-boxes detect the kvm modules? Is there a way to get debug
output?

G_MESSAGES_DEBUG=all should give some debug output. Otherwise you can
try your luck with strace, maybe it will show something. Have you
checked if the libvirt QEMU driver and is installed
(/usr/lib64/libvirt/connection-driver/libvirt_driver_qemu.so) ? It's
packaged separately on my Fedora in libvirt-daemon-driver-qemu. There is
also a libvirt-daemon-kvm, but this one seems to be more of an empty virtual
packages with dependencies on all the packages libvirt needs in such an
environment.
