I have this problem too. I have a karmic host and a karmic client. I connect over ssh to the server. The server has br0 configured as bridge. But I don't get the "Shared physical devices" listed in the GUI.
I edited the config files of the domain directly and added theses lines: '00:16: 3e:1a:b3: ca'/>
<interface type='bridge'>
<mac address=
<source bridge='br0'/>
</interface>
This works like a charm, but would be nice to have a GUI to do that...
I found an interessiting blog articel about that problem: ramblings. narrabilis. com/wp/ virt-manager- cannot- select- shared- physical- device- when-configurin g-network/

A default server installation doesnt have a hal daemon/dbus daemon installed, has it?
