It's question 1.3.11, at http://wiki.libvirt.org/page/FAQ#networking_is_unavailable_in_virt-manager_.2F_virsh_-_libvirt.27s_default_network_fails_to_start > Offhand, I suspect > this is in reference to the host (particularly since the guest need not > run Linux in the first place); Good point.

"virsh list" doesn't list anything, despite the fact that I still have one VM visible in the virt-manager GUI. (FWIW, consider me a libvirt novice, despite trying out virt-manager every year or so for the last 3 years or so. I've just never had much luck with it. I finally got annoyed enough to dig into the docs a little bit, which just got me more annoyed, so here I am.)
