I have a Thinkpad T60 with a Core Duo processor and kvm is working fine
here.
If you haven't done so already, you should check to see that support is
enabled in the BIOS. The output of /proc/cpuinfo on my machine had vmx
among the list of extensions, even before enabling that feature in the
BIOS. I also had to completely power down for the changes to take effect,
(a reboot was not enough).
Another thing to watch out for is that you have read/write permissions
for /dev/kvm, (it's 0660, root:root here). You'll see the same error
message, ("Could not initialize KVM, will disable KVM support"), if
you don't have sufficient privileges.
