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?

Don't turn this on - it is a (remotely exploitable) security
hole because it makes XenD open a TCP port with no
authentication checks made upon connection :-(

This is the required parameter for virt-manager.

Check in /root/.virt-manager/virt-manager.log for any errors
being reported. Also just try running 'virsh list' which is a
simple sanity test for libvirt operating correctly.
