Hello Rich,
I am not sure if KVM ever ran. I put VirtualBox in it because I
have never done virtualization before and found some instructions
for VB. That said, I might have naively shut something off because
I didn't know any better. No VB was not running at the time. I
thought of that and turned it off. Though, I bet the services are
still up.
What is the standard kvm service? I could check to see if it is
running properly. And we could go from there.
There's not really a "KVM service" as such. It is a part of the
kernel is only used when you start a KVM guest.
In any case as it looks like you have VirtualBox running, my advice
would be to delete the /dev/kvm file, and try running
libguestfs-test-tool and/or virt-resize again.
sudo rm /dev/kvm
