[one-users] failed to initialize KVM: Operation not permitted

[Jon]

The docs for the KVM driver say that it is necessary to change ownership of
/dev/KVM to one admin.  I'm on Ubuntu, and changing the ownership caused
this exact error (sorry, it was some weeks ago so I don't have the logs).
Removing the udev rule and chowning /dev/kvm back to default resolved the
error.

I'm not recommending this course of action, as it is contrary to the docs
and is likely indicative that I've done something wrong in my setup,
however, I have not had any issues and therefore assigned a low priority on
chasing the issue further.

Maybe Javier can shed some light on why this step is required?

Just my $0.02

Jon A
