Error with the given example

Hi I'm using the following command line:

kvm -no-acpi -m 500 rfs_images/fedora17.img -device virtio-serial -chardev socket,path=/tmp/foo,server,nowait,id=foo -chardev socket,path=/tmp/bar,server,nowait,id=bar -device virtioconsole,chardev=foo,name=org.fedoraproject.console.foo -device virtioconsole,chardev=bar,name=org.fedoraproject.console.foo

This gives the error: kvm: -device virtioconsole,chardev=foo,name=org.fedoraproject.console.foo: Parameter 'driver' expects a driver name

What am I'm doing wrong?

Thank you and best Regards,

Eviatar
