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 On 19 March 2014 18:06, Daniel P.

Guys thanks a lot for taking the time out to reply, Although adding the $PATH & symbolic link methods both solved the "No hypervisor found" error on virt-manager but when I try to create a VM using the wizard it says:
"No hypervisor options were found for this connection"
"This usually means that QEMU or KVM is not installed on your machine, or the KVM modules are not loaded."
The QEMU I want to connect to libvirt has no KVM kernel drivers (DPDK Qemu). There is a single binary "qemu-system-x86_64"
I am using virt-manager GUI to see whether qemu is being detected by libvirt or not (is there a better/CLI method?)
Yes, ignore virt-manager for now. You just want 'virsh capabilities' to show the binary you care about.
