http://askubuntu.com – I am trying to setup a vm using xen under ubuntu 12.04LTS. I have installed the default libvirt version but I have some errors when trying to run: $ virsh -c <uri> list the errors are: error: no connection driver available for No connection for URI xen:/// error: failed to connect to the hypervisor I have found this information, but it does not really help me as my libvirt isn't compiled from sources. Does anyone know how to fix this issue? (HowTos)

I've configured some virtual machine under Xen on Debian Squeeze using libvirt with virsh. Now I want to get rid of the libvirt layer, because I need to configure some specific parameters on the DomUs that are not supported by libvirt.

Thank you for any suggestion !
