Doesn't the OP need to have X windows for that as well? Correct me if
I am wrong, but I think the only way to do anything with
virtualization without X is to use kvm commands by hand with the
daemon flag set.

 I use Xming. I bet this is all happening because i can't just vnc directly, you have to unlock the keyring every time the system logs into my account (I have autologin set up). If i could unlock the keyring via SSH for the whole session, or something, i would gladly just use vnc and then it would more than likely work. 

Is it possible to unlock the keyring automatically on login/startup or unlock it from command line? If so, that would kill two birds with one stone :)
