Comment 5 for bug 1320360

Hi,

if I try to start the vm by virt-manager I get this detailed error log:

Fehler beim Starten der Domain: internal error: early end of file from
monitor: possible problem:
qemu-system-x86_64: -device usb-host,hostbus=1,hostaddr=3,id=hostdev0:
'usb-host' is not a valid device model name

Traceback (most recent call last):
   File "/usr/share/virt-manager/virtManager/asyncjob.py", line 91, in
