The message in "configure" says

"or install recent kvm-kmod from http://sourceforge.net/projects/kvm".

I did exactly this. I didn't work. I was confused by your messages.

Why do you write this?

I think it is better to write in the script "configure":

"NOTE: To enable KVM support, update your kernel to 2.6.29+."

It is not nice for the most users but clear.

Better is what I wrote in #17:

"Maybe better is a link to a URL with more and updated help for this problem. It is possible users of other distributions will have the same problem. "

(I think this little change take less time than this discussion.)

Please fix this for QEMU 0.12.0.
