Thanks Rich! It was running, but not as a system daemon (I'm not even really sure how it started). Now I can manage QEMU guests with virt-manager ... I'm still working on the network (seem to be missing a package that allows virtual bridging). I'm also working on a end-to-end full virtualization how-to (since in total, I believe this to be much better than VMware). Would anyone be interested in providing feedback for it? ciao, smoyer On Wednesday 16 May 2007 05:48, Richard W.M.
