I want to be able to "connect" and initiate a guest in a *script* (so it can be done automatically when the host boots), and then allow users (without admin privileges) to access the guest graphically. Is this a reasonable mode of operation? If so, how do I do it? If I call qemu-kvm directly the -nographic option doesn't seem to do what I expect. And I don't know how to use virt-viewer to view a guest initiated directly rather than by using virt-manager. If this kind of stuff is explained somewhere in documentation I haven't managed to find, please refer me to it and my apologies for using the mail-list inappropriately. It might be helpful if the list archives were searchable.
