Bug Description
Binary package hint: kvm
If we want to make the kvm-ok script really useful then it should be disassociated from the kvm package. Users should not have to install kvm and its dependents in order to discover whether they can use kvm. I propose we move this script into the base Ubuntu install.

Confirming this bug.
I suggested last week to put in pciutils. cjwatson nacked that, and I agree it's not the perfect place for this.
Find a good package to put this util in, and I'll gladly sponsor a patch.
