Bug Description
I suspect this is a regression as it was working fine prior to the latest testdrive update via the ppa.
Now I get the following output from testdrive - it seems to be wanting to use KVM.
purging and reinstalling testdrive fails to fix the issue (doesn't install kvm as I guess the dependency checker sees I have virtualbox 3.2 installed)

Hi MoLe,
Have you indicated in the config file that testdrive should use virtualbox instead of kvm?
