I am using QEMU 1.1.0, the latest libvirt (from the git repo, but I've also tried release 0.10.0). Host os is Ubuntu 10.04 and the VM os is also 10.04.

- What libvirt version?
- What OS/version?
- What qemu-kvm version?
Can you reproduce the same issue with latest libvirt and qemu-kvm ? (that's what I have on
my F18 machine -- libvirt-0.10.2-3.fc18.x86_64, qemu-kvm-1.2.0-11.fc18.x86_64) ?
That's the machine type I have.
# grep machine /etc/libvirt/qemu/f17jeos-3.xml
<type arch='x86_64' machine='pc-1.2'>hvm</type>
>From the looks of it, I guess you have a fairly older versions of qemu-kvm?(or whatever
your distro calls the binary as?)
