libvirt-manager install tips on #Debian sid

A good idea is to add yourself to libvirt group and also kvm

sudo adduser mariuz libvirt
sudo adduser mariuz kvm

the dir of /var/lib/libvirt/images is unwritable for the group libvirt (seems that is created with root.root )
so is good to make it group rw and change the owner to grup libvirt

sudo chmod g+rw /var/lib/libvirt/images/


otherwise you will get the dreaded message qemu: could not open disk image /var/lib/libvirt/images

Now i can install natty in the virtmanager
