The log says: Wed, 22 Nov 2006 12:17:44 ERROR Unable to open connection to hypervisor URI 'xen': socket.gaierror (-2, 'Name or service not known') "virsh list" runs perfect on my system. Furthermore, a strange thing is that while this error message window is shown when virt-manager starts up, I can see in the background (virt-manager GUI is actually loaded while showing the error message) that virt-manager shows Dom0 and its CPU usage etc. correctly. So why do I get this error message then and virt-manager shuts down? > -----Original Message----- > From: Daniel P.
