1. When I start virt-manager from the menu, when logged as the primary 
administrator (first user) nothing happen.
2. When I start virt-manager from the menu, when logged as another user, I get 
a popup asking for root password, then nothing.
3. If I launch it from a terminal as the primary administrator (first user), I 
get a popup saying :
     Error starting Virtual Machine Manager: Could not run virt-manager, not 
root
4. If I su to root and launch it from a terminal, I get a python backtrace :

# virt-manager
Traceback (most recent call last):
   File "/usr/share/virt-manager/virt-manager.py", line 379, in ?

   File "/usr/share/virt-manager/virt-manager.py", line 52, in

     import gtk

   File "/usr/lib/python2.4/warnings.py", line 96, in warn_explicit
     raise message
gtk.GtkWarning: could not open display
this is probably fixable with "xhost +root" before switching user via su.
