Trying to get virt-manager to manage Ubuntu's new JeOS server images, which
now do install and run quite nicely under KVM ( aka install the server image
iso but hit F4 at the main screen and pick virtual image, to get JeOS ). So
I have two servers installed but how does one get networking, working?

I know you need to do a "sudo adduser $USER kvm" to get KVM working for a
user, but how to get the networking, working? Every time I try and activate
a network or add a network bridge I get the error:

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/usr/share/virt-manager/virtManager/host.py", line 262, in
start_network
    net.start()
  File "/usr/share/virt-manager/virtManager/network.py", line 71, in start
    self.net.create()
  File "/usr/lib/python2.6/dist-packages/libvirt.py", line 612, in create
    if ret == -1: raise libvirtError ('virNetworkCreate() failed', net=self)
libvirtError: cannot create bridge 'virbr1': Operation not permitted

Which seems like a permission issue, but what permission does my user need?
I've been googleing it but since virt-manager is a Fedora product there are
no Ubuntu hits.

Any ideas are appricated

Joe
