[et-mgmt-tools] KVM: praise for F7 virt-manager, virsh, automatically starting guests

First of all, the improved virt-manager that comes with Fedora 7 is
awesome! By simply clicking through the UI and exploring a bit I was
able to learn how to create a functional bridged network to the LAN my
host is on. I know naught about networking and this has traditionally
been the most painful aspect for me when I was playing with
virtualization some time ago.
1. Should virsh work with KVM in Fedora 7? When I run virsh I get only
"virsh: error: failed to connect to the hypervisor"
2. What is the canonical/"out of the box" way to start a KVM-based
guest when the host system boots? I'm fine with "just use
/etc/rc.local" or whatever if the infrastructure isn't in place yet
(if so, what command should I run?). But it would be nice to be able
to manage the guest from virt-manager after starting it up from a
script somehow.
Thank you,
-Adam
