"I can highly recommend virt-manager - i've never needed to care about kvm and network setup. And never needed to disable nm."

Is your host doing NAT for the kvm guests? I find that works fine by default. But last time I needed to put the kvm guests on the real network (using bridging, as in the parent comment), I found libvirt and nm weren't enough--I needed to turn off nm and do all the setup manually.

(But it may be that I missed some libvirt configuration that could have helped.)
