I finally got access to some machines with more resources than the free VMware ESXi license allows which pushed me into trying kvm instead. Seems capable enough for what I need and can even import and run the existing vmdk images I already have. But, I have some questions about accessing the virt-manager console remotely for initial configuration, etc.. Normally I use freenx for remote GUI access and it seems to work except that on the Windows guest I tried the cursor position never stays in sync. Are there better ways to get remote access to the GUI or centralize access to a group of KVM servers? Or do most people automate the VM setup to the point where they don't need console access until it is up on the network where you can connect directly to the guest?
