It installed ok from your repo, also upgraded to libvirt ok, booted 
2.6.17-1.2307_FC6xen, xend running, started your GUI from a tty

# virt-manager
dbus_bindings.DBusException Unable to determine the address of the 
message bus ( try 'man dbus-launch' and 'man dbus-daemon' for help)
Could not connection to session bus, disabling DBus service

Naturally I have got dbus running, at this point I got the open 
connection dialog, and tried to connect to local xen host (with and 
without read only, but as root) after a delay the dialog closed, but 
this message is displayed if invoked from a tty

libvir: Xen Daemon error : could not connect to Xen Daemon
Unable to open connection to hypervisor URI 'xen'
libvirt.libvirtError virDomainLookupByID() failed

However I did look at the mockup design and the screenshots on your 
pages, and I *like* the look of what it intends to do :-)
