Hello,
I want to run virtual machine on my ubuntu 10.10. I'm blind so I'm using 
orca as a screen reader.
I wanted to use virt-manager which is packaged with ubuntu, but I can't 
get sound working and I heart that in spice sound is working well.
So I downloaded packages from debian wheezy and installed them.
I'm using:
libvirt-bin 0.9.0~rc2
virt-manager 0.8.7
qemu-kvm with spice support 0.14.0
spice-client 0.8.0
these versions are from debian packages.
When I try to start my vm, and spice is set as display, nothing happens. 
There is just creatinv virtual machine, progress stops at about 50%.
When I try to restart my screenreader to get speech again, this error 
pops up:
Can't finish installation: 'internal error Process exited while reading 
console log output: char device redirected to /dev/pts/2
do_spice_init: starting 0.8.0

I can provide you more info, just tell me which info do you need.
Thank you very much,
