I installed the virt-manager-0.8.1 and virtinst-0.500.1.
And the error was fixed. The virt-manager gui can works. Thank you!

At the same time, i still can't create vm with the virt-manager-0.8.1
the error as below:
Unable to complete install 'libvirt.libvirtError internal error Domain as didn't show up

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/usr/local/dvirt/share/virt-manager/virtManager/create.py", line 1429, in do_install
    dom = guest.start_install(False, meter = meter)
  File "/usr/lib/python2.4/site-packages/virtinst/Guest.py", line 660, in start_install
    return self._do_install(consolecb, meter, removeOld, wait)
  File "/usr/lib/python2.4/site-packages/virtinst/Guest.py", line 758, in _do_install
    self.domain = self.conn.createLinux(install_xml, 0)
  File "/usr/lib/python2.4/site-packages/libvirt.py", line 974, in createLinux
    if ret is None:raise libvirtError('virDomainCreateLinux() failed', conn=self)
libvirtError: internal error Domain as didn't show up

And the reason is as Daniel P. Berrange said, "'ia64' is not listed as a valid architecture
 in qemu_conf.c, RHEL-5 KVM only supports x86_64".
In other words, the libvirt didn't support KVM emulator running on ia64 architecture.

Thank you for your work on virt-manager.
