With my older machine locking up once too often at in-opportune times, |
| 2 |
I've switched over to a newer machine, which I've tried to set up |
| 3 |
identically. QEMU is not laumching. It worked on the older system. |
| 4 |
The error message is... |
| 5 |
|
| 6 |
[x8940][waltdnes][~] /home/misc/qemu/arca/boot |
| 7 |
Could not access KVM kernel module: No such file or directory |
| 8 |
qemu-system-x86_64: failed to initialize kvm: No such file or directory |

My user is a member of the kvm group, and I get the same error trying |
| 11 |
to launch as root |
