[Fedora-xen] What's the Pre-requisites for virt-manager

[Henry Zhang]

Hi Daniel,

Here I have another question on virt-manager, as you write "an embedded 
VNC client viewer provides console access to each of the guest domains", 
my concern is where is the vnc server, who provide it, and start it?
Need we setup vnc? I looked through the process used to create guest, 
seems there is no any step for vnc...

Thanks,
Henry
