Though vir-manager does have a python related bug in 131,

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

4. If I su to root and launch it from a terminal, I get a python backtrace :

Looks like a catch22 as there is no root user in opensolaris ?
Any ideas ?
