# virsh -V
Virsh command line tool of libvirt 0.9.3 ...

Compiled with support for:
 Hypervisors: QEmu/KVM UML OpenVZ VirtualBox LXC ESX Test
 Networking: Remote Daemon Network Bridging Nwfilter VirtualPort
 Storage: Dir Filesystem SCSI Multipath LVM
 Miscellaneous: SELinux Secrets Debug Readline

Why? Ah, I do have a couple stray vbox processes somehow:

root     25265  0.0  0.1  86076  4304 ?        S    19:34   0:00 /usr/lib/virtualbox/VBoxXPCOMIPCD
root     25274  0.0  0.1 209964  6672 ?        Sl   19:34   0:02 /usr/lib/virtualbox/VBoxSVC --pipe 4 --auto-shutdown

But that should cause it to deny it knows how to handle Qemu/KVM? 

> # virsh -c qemu:///sytem list --all

Okay, that one works.

The first (at least) also works. Thanks.
