Welcome to virsh, the virtualization interactive terminal.

virsh # start fc15
^_ _ _ it seems you're using privileged user to login virsh, I remembered that it should be "virsh >" not "virsh #" when use unprivileged user, I assume you hadn't any modification in libvirtd.conf, in addition, for unprivileged user, as usual, libvirt will raise the following information if you're trying to connect hypervisor:

Tested it on libvirt-0.8.2-22.el5:
$ virsh -c qemu+unix:///system?socket=/var/run/libvirt/libvirt-sock --readonly error: unable to connect to '/var/run/libvirt/libvirt-sock', libvirtd may need to be started: Permission denied
error: failed to connect to the hypervisor

Tested it on libvirt-0.9.4-16.el6.x86_64:
$ virsh -c qemu+unix:///system?socket=/var/run/libvirt/libvirt-sock --readonly
error: authentication failed: authentication failed
error: failed to connect to the hypervisor
