Hey everyone,
Have a bit of a problem getting KVM PCI passthrough to work on FC17. Using virt-manager I am trying to pass a pci card to a guest vm and am receiving an error message. The system loads fine without the passthrough device configued.
this is what the virt-manager error dialog box says

Error starting domain: Unable to read from monitor: Connection reset by peer

the log file
/var/log/libvirt/qemu/VMNAME.xml shows

I thought earlier that virsh command nodedev-dettach wasnt working, but that is no longer a problem. So i am able to dettach the pci device from the host before launching and getting this message.
I am pretty stuck and really want to get this working, any help would be great!
thanks
