Bug Description
Binary package hint: virt-manager
1)
Description: Ubuntu 10.04 LTS
Release: 10.04

3) I expected to can use a old parallel dongle (on parallel port) in my guest system (Win XP)
4) When I add my parallel port (I'm not sure if it is /dev/lp0 or /dev/parport0) I can't boot the guest system and get the following output:
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "/usr/share/
vm.startup()
File "/usr/share/
self.
File "/usr/lib/
if ret == -1: raise libvirtError ('virDomainCreate() failed', dom=self)
libvirtError: monitor socket did not show up.: Connection refused
The dongle is connected to the parallel port and libvirt-qemu has the permission to use this port. I've looked this issue up in google for hours, but didn't find much.
I'm not sure if this is a real bug, but to my mind it's at least a "strange behavior" of virt mangater/qemu/kvm.

Thanks for reporting this issue.
Could you please attach the output of "dmesg" once you've tried starting your virtual machine?
