I've been trying to work out why Windows 10 in gnome boxes is slow, and noticed gnome-boxes seems can't connect to KVM in libvirsh


(gnome-boxes:9264): Boxes-WARNING **: 17:14:11.078: util-app.vala:330: Failed to execute child process ?restorecon? (No such file or directory)
• The CPU is capable of virtualization: yes
• The KVM module is loaded: yes
• Libvirt KVM guest available: no
• Boxes storage pool available: no
    Could not get “gnome-boxes” storage pool information from libvirt. Make sure “virsh -c qemu:///session pool-dumpxml gnome-boxes” is working.
• The SELinux context is default: no

KVM is available:

kvm-ok
INFO: /dev/kvm exists
KVM acceleration can be used

libvirt is started:

I'm in the KVM group:

I'm not sure what to try next ?
