[libvirt-users] Error when creating domain with virsh+qemu

Cheers, I'm working on Ubuntu server 11.10 32 bit with libvirt 0.9.2 and qemu-kvm 0.14.1. I have a user oneadmin:oneadmin who also belongs to kvm and libvirtd groups. I have set qemu.conf and libvirtd.conf with user/group oneadmin. I have disk.0 and deployment.0 files owned by oneadmin. My system does not support hardware virtualization so I don't have /dev/kvm. I'm able to start VM with qemu anyways but when issuing the command: virsh -c qemu:///system create deployment.0 I get: error: Failed to create domain from deployment.0 error: internal error process exited while connecting to monitor: 13:00:52.354:1291: info: libvirt version: 0.9.2 13:00:52.371: 1291: debug : virCommandHook:1826 : Waiting on parent for handshake complete on 23 13:00:52.371: 1291: debug : virCommandHook:1842 : Hook is done 0 open /dev/kvm: No such file or directory failed to initialize KVM: Operation not permitted "error while connecting to monitor" looks to me as something permission-related but I tried a lot of combinations between the qemu and libvirt conf files and nothing worked (yes, I always restarted the system after every change). If I start the same image with sudo /usr/bin/qemu-system-i386 -hda disk.img -boot d -m 384 it works Any help?
