Ouch - you've now got version mismatch, where you didn't completely
uninstall the distro version, and your self-built version is installed
in locations that pick up the distro version.  Did you use the right
configure flags?

Ah, apt - are you on debian or ubuntu?  I don't know as much about the
versions that those distros are using (I'm personally using Fedora 16,
along with the fedora-virt-preview repo, which gives 0.9.10 pre-built).

There might be someone already shipping a pre-built 0.9.10 apt, but I
wouldn't know where to tell you to look, so building from source is the
other alternative.  If you build from libvirt.git, you can use
'./autobuild.sh --system' to help set the ./configure options that match
with the typical installation directories for at least Fedora, but
again, I don't know how that fares with the debian installation layout
(and patches are welcome to autobuild.sh for anyone that wants to use it
on a debian layout).

Yeah, I am using Ubuntu 11.10.  I was able to uninstall the old libvirt and virsh works again but still getting this when trying to start the vm:

testa@testaT4:~$ virsh list
 Id    Name                           State
----------------------------------------------------

testa@testaT4:~$ virsh version
Compiled against library: libvir 0.9.10
Using library: libvir 0.9.10
Using API: QEMU 0.9.10
error: failed to get the hypervisor version
error: internal error Cannot find suitable emulator for x86_64

testa@testaT4:~$ virsh -c qemu:///system start Shawn
error: Failed to connect socket to '/usr/local/var/run/libvirt/libvirt-sock': No such file or directory

I guess you're using a old virsh with new libvirt, you may check your virsh command location,
if `which virsh` says '/usr/bin/virsh' and `which libvirtd` says /usr/sbin/libvirtd, and socket is
/var/run/libvirt/libvirt-sock not above socket path, it's right.

It probably your virsh command path is /usr/local/bin/virsh, and your socket path is
/var/run/libvirt/libvirt-sock now, if so, you may explicitly specify /usr/bin/virsh or clean up
your dirty environment then directly run virsh instead of a absolute path.

Good Luck!

Thanks again for helping me out!
