Hi Bruno,
what worked was
changing the permissions of
/var/run/libvirt/libvirt-sock
When this problem came I saw the permissions as
srwxrwx--- 1 root root 0 2011-02-08 15:54 libvirt-sock
I did 777 to above file and I find the permissions now
srwxrwx--- 1 root libvirtd 0 2011-02-08 15:54 libvirt-sock
and now the virt-manager is working fine.
I really do not have any idea as why this problem came.
Though I was doing an update on my Ubuntu server at that time.
Here is a problem which I just reported to Ubuntu server team
https://answers.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+question/144560
I feel this is related with my problem.
In case you have any idea for this let me know.
But right now this problem is fixed.

If you autenticate (need to enter root password root password when
connecting), see if root password hasn't changed (type 'su -', without the
quotes, in terminal, enter root password and see if it works).
Also check if libvirtd is running. Type 'ps aux | grep libtvirt' in
terminal, see if there is any process with this name.

I have been regularly logging in to a virtualization setup of mine and
have been using it.
Today after noon I logged in as usual and typed virt-manager
I got following error

Any idea as what might be causing this problem and what should I check in
here?
