Xen users - Jan 2009 - unable to view domU console with vnc viewer in fedora8

Hi,

i tried viewing the console using vnc viewer,by clicking add hardware in the
details menu,
it gave me the following error:

Unable to complete install: ''global name
''libvirtError'' is not defined''

error details:
Unable to complete install ''<type
''exceptions.NameError''> global name
''libvirtError'' is not defined
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/usr/share/virt-manager/virtManager/addhardware.py", line 530,
in
add_device
    self.vm.add_device(xml)
  File "/usr/share/virt-manager/virtManager/domain.py", line 684, in
add_device
    except libvirtError, e:
NameError: global name ''libvirtError'' is not defined
''
Im using a prebuilt image from jailtime.org
I am not able to view the guest os console on the fedora dom0, ive been
trying for a while now and i dont know what to do,my config file is:
kernel = "/boot/vmlinuz-2.6.21-2950.fc8xen"
ramdisk="/boot/initrd-2.6.21-2950.fc8xen-no-scsi.img"
memory = 428
name = "fedora.fc8"
vif = [ '''' ]
dhcp = "dhcp"
disk = [''file:/xen/fedora/fedora.fc8.img,sda1,w'',
''file:/xen/fedora/fedora.swap,sda2,w'']
root = "/dev/sda1 ro"
sd1=0

You might need to install more packages etc. to get vnc to work on a PV
guest:

i added vfb = [ ''type=vnc'' ].
