Hi, all.

When I trying to create a kvm machine using virt-manager, I get the
following error message:

Unable to complete install '<class 'libvirt.libvirtError'> internal error
unable to start guest: Supported machines are:
pc         Standard PC (default)
isapc      ISA-only PC

The problem is that virt-manager uses "M=pc-0.11" parameter in kvm command
line, while
  # virsh -c qemu:///system capabilities
  ...
      <domain type='kvm'>
        <emulator>/usr/bin/kvm</emulator>
        <machine>pc</machine>
        <machine>isapc</machine>
      </domain>
  ...
so it should be "M=pc" there.

The similar problem was in libvirt recenlty, but it was solved in 0.7.1. See
the following
