I'm reading something about this error message being related to
libvirt and CAP_SYS_RAWIO?

http://www.mail-archive.com/kvm@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx/msg34338.html
http://www.google.co.uk/#hl=en&xhr=t&q=libvirt+CAP_SYS_RAWIO&cp=21&pf=p&sclient=psy&aq=f&aqi=&aql=&oq=libvirt+CAP_SYS_RAWIO&pbx=1&fp=2d8e3f69fec095f4

"When I patch libvirt to not drop the capabilities, everything works
as expected."

Regards,

James.
