Still no success virsh capabilities doesn't return any "emulator" output.
When I check the "libvirtd.log" there is an error:


2014-03-20 11:25:00.056+0000: 1014: error : virCommandWait:2188 : internal
error Child process (LC_ALL=C PATH=/usr/local/sbin:/usr/
local/bin:/usr/bin:/usr/sbin:/sbin:/bin /usr/local/bin/qemu-system-x86_64
-help) status unexpected: exit status 1


I have searched mailing lists for this error (
https://lists.fedoraproject.org/pipermail/virt/2012-July/003358.html)
but the solution suggested involves  KVM which I cannot do (I just want to
run simple qemu 1.4.0 )

libvirt version: 0.98
qemu: 1.4.0
