<p>The first looks like kvm thinks it should be doing something. If you aren't running a kvm based server, disable kvm.<br>
The sendmail issue os literally the daemon can't write the file. Either disk full or permission error. For unknown reasons sometimes the var/mail becomes not gtoup writeable. A perm change fixed it and it didn't reappear. </p>

What is the significance of this error which is regularly appearing in<br>
/var/log/messages along with.....<br>
<br>
kvm_getenvv<br>
<br>
failed ?<br>
<br>
This is apparently aroused by gnome's "console-kit-daemon"<br>

I'm also getting what I assume is a sendmail complaint as follows:<br>
<br>
sm-mta cannot write .q###############: permission denied.<br>
<br>
How can I resolve this as well, please ?<br>
<br>
Appreciatively,<br>
