same problem here on karmic hypervisor.  Seems to be something with the
"-S" switch which virt-manager uses to start the guests (as seen from ps
output).  If I try and start the XP guest with -S, it just sits forever.
Issuing 'c' from kvm console (alt+2) just fails the boot process.

Trying to start an XP guest from virt-manager results in:
---------------------------------------------------
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/usr/share/virt-manager/virtManager/engine.py", line 493, in run_domain
    vm.startup()
  File "/usr/share/virt-manager/virtManager/domain.py", line 558, in startup
    self.vm.create()
  File "/usr/lib/python2.6/dist-packages/libvirt.py", line 293, in create
    if ret == -1: raise libvirtError ('virDomainCreate() failed', dom=self)
libvirtError: monitor socket did not show up.: No such file or directory


Only way I can start this guest is by hand on the cli:
---------------------------------------------------
