should result in a nice little OS icon next to each guest plus some extra information in various dialogs.
And I'm not getting any icons next to my Windows XP virtual machines (maybe that's why it keeps trying to run :-).
It should only try once per VM (per run of virt-manager). It will not retry if it fails to inspect a VM.
To understand why it would not be able to inspect the Windows XP guest, try the following command:
# virt-inspector -d NameOfWindowsVM > /tmp/winxp.xml
It should show one <operatingsystem> section containing an <icon>.
If it doesn't show that, then do:
# virt-inspector -d NameOfWindowsVM -x > /tmp/debug.txt 2>&1
and post the resulting data into a bug report.
Rich.
