I am trying to set up a VM on my Ubuntu 13.04 Desktop and it's giving me error when I try to start the VM. The error states:

virsh # start vm1
error: Failed to start domain vm1
error: internal error process exited while connecting to monitor: W: kvm binary
is deprecated, please use qemu-system-x86_64 instead
char device redirected to /dev/pts/2 (label charserial0)
qemu: at most 2047 MB RAM can be simulated

What is the workaround for this, if any?
