Summary0002516: network manager at virt-manager doesn't work
DescriptionHello,
 I've a problem in CentOS 5.1 ... the virt-manager in CentOS 5, when creating new vm didn't have that step of choosing network interface and everything worked fine .. but now after update to 5.1, I cannot create any machines ... if I chose the "virtual network" options it doesn't work .. and I cannot choose the "shared physical interface" option .. as there is no options in its drop down menu and it tell me "You must select one of the physical devices" while there is none to choose from ...

 I'm seeing the same issue here.

Linux my.xen.box 2.6.18-53.1.4.el5xen 0000001 SMP Fri Nov 30 01:53:35 EST 2007 i686 i686 i386 GNU/Linux

same kernel version and rpm versions as Amr_not_Amr, only i386 not x86_64.

I'm using e1000 nic's though:
03:07.0 Ethernet controller: Intel Corporation 82546EB Gigabit Ethernet Controller (Copper) (rev 01)
03:07.1 Ethernet controller: Intel Corporation 82546EB Gigabit Ethernet Controller (Copper) (rev 01)

 On a fresh install of 5.1 the shared physical device drop down was empty for me. Looking in .virt-manager/virt-manager.log revealed the following exception:

Attached is a patch for /usr/share/virt-manager/virtManager/connection.py that fixed it for me.

 It appears this entry is blanked out if haldaemon is not running. You should be able to run "lshal" and get some proper output.

If not, restart the haldaemon service.
