how to use with another VM such as virtualbox #106

How can cassoway be used with another vm specifically virtualbox. I understand some features such as auto starting and suspension may not work. I tried to run cassoway with a windows install in virtualbox and after filling out the setup screen I get the following error

libvirt: XML-RPC error : Failed to connect socket to '/var/run/libvirt/virtqemud-sock': No such file or directory

Please ignore I figured out that I needed to leave the first line in the config blank

hi there - I am trying to use another VM (virtualbox) instead of libvirt. when I run python3 -m cassowary it automatically tries to use libvirt.

I see in the comments to leave a line in the config file blank? how do we do this / where is it located?
