Bug Description
Binary package hint: testdrive
on running testdrive i get the message
ERROR: You must have either /usr/bin/kvm or /usr/bin/VBoxManage installed.
HINT: Consider installing kvm if your CPU supports VT, or virtualbox-ose...
egrep "flags.
sudo apt-get install kvm || \
sudo apt-get install virtualbox-ose
my CPU flags are:
flags : fpu vme de pse tsc msr pae mce cx8 apic sep mtrr pge mca cmov pat pse36 clflush dts acpi mmx fxsr sse sse2 ss ht tm pbe syscall nx lm constant_tsc arch_perfmon pebs bts rep_good aperfmperf pni dtes64 monitor ds_cpl vmx tm2
so installed the kvm package. but i still get the same error message.
if i run kvm i get the message:
open /dev/kvm: No such file or directory
Could not initialize KVM, will disable KVM support
