start: Job failed to start
invoke-rc.d: initscript qemu-kvm, action "start" failed.
I am also unable to start qemu-kvm using the following methods:
$sudo service qemu-kvm start
start: Job failed to start
$ sudo /etc/init.
Rather than invoking init scripts through /etc/init.d, use the service(8)
utility, e.g. service qemu-kvm start
Since the script you are attempting to invoke has been converted to an
Upstart job, you may also use the start(8) utility, e.g. start qemu-kvm
start: Job failed to start
$ sudo start qemu-kvm
start: Job failed to start
It does not seems to be running:
$ sudo service qemu-kvm status
qemu-kvm stop/waiting
And when I am using virtual machine manager it warns "KVM is not available. This may mean the KVM package is not installed or the KVM kernel modules are not loaded."
I expect that after the update (and subsequent power cycling of the computer) I should be able to use KVM.

Not sure what happened but after another restart it's working fine. Set status to "Invalid" as it can no longer be reproduced.
