[libvirt-users] Problems with qemu-system-arm and isa-serial

Hi, I'm trying to use libvirt for an armel virtual machine hosted into an x86_64 box. I know the command line to start qemu-system-arm directly, but I cannot figure a proper .xml configuration file to let libvirt do this job. The main problem is that I want a serial console attached via telnet, this is the Qemu incantation: -serial telnet::4000,server,nowait,nodelay Wahtever I do in libvirt, I get this paramter added: -device isa-serial which causes Qemu to fail: qemu-system-arm -M versatileab -device isa-serial \ -kernel vmlinuz-2.6.32-5-versatile qemu-system-arm: -device isa-serial: No 'ISA' bus found for device 'isa-serial' How can I instead have -device pl011, or just have the default devices provided by qemu-system-arm, i.e. to prevent libvirt from adding the -nodefaults switch?
