Hello libvirt people,

I've been experimenting with kvm with saucy host and guests in the last couple days. I ran into the problem where, while the desktop vm launched correctly, I was unable to type in my password or click into that field--usb seemed to not work. So, I followed the directions in #13 and it's links and did the EnabledProposed. I installed the libvirt/1.1.1-0ubuntu8.2 package, but it didn't work at first. Now, I don't know if it would have at that point if I had added the USB controller (I think it was, I'm not in front of that computer now) at that time and set it to USB 2, but anyway, at first it didn't work. So then I installed all of the regular kvm packages in the proposed group that had the -0ubuntu8.2 numbering, I think there were 5 altogether. Anyway, after I added these 5 proposed packages, added the USB controller and set to USB 2, it work great. I wish I had more precise details. I'm now using one vm for a saucy desktop with spice and also have a 12.04 vm server using a .vdi that I imported from vbox (after converting to .gcow2). Thanks for your work. Let me know if I can provide further info.
