+virt-manager is a gtk interface that connects to libvirt.
+
+This requires libvirt, GConf, gnome-python, urlgrabber, virtinst, gtk-vnc,
+tunctl, rarian and optionally qemu and/or kvm.
+
+If you have networking problems, make sure you have the tun module loaded.
+
+To run virt-manager as a normal user, you need to configure libvirt
+to have the correct permissions. Uncomment the unix_sock_group and
+unix_sock_rw_perms in /etc/libvirt/libvirtd.conf and add the user to the
+libvirt group
