Which is why I was looking at the option of using 'macvtap' instead,
which does allow you to use a wifi nic:

http://libvirt.org/formatnetwork.html#examplesDirect
http://www.libvirt.org/formatdomain.html#elementsNICSDirect

However, my current knowledge (of libvirt, etc.) is too limited to use
those two links to create a working setup for me, so some more
detailed and/or elaborate instructions and/or documentation would be
appreciated.

It seems to involve the manual creation of xml files, and then feeding
those to virsh in order to change the configuration or something ? Is
there a command i can feed vrish to make it dump the current
configuration in xml, so that maybe i can start to use that as a basis
and hack it up to see what happens ?


Thanks again,
