The big news here is the update to qemu 0.9.0.
Changes from kvm-13:
- qemu 0.9.0
- too many goodies to list
- kvm can no longer share qemu's bios on Intel hosts due to real mode
trouble. use the supplied bios.
- migration
FYI, as of libvirt 0.2.0 and virt-manager 0.3.1 there is now (experimental!)
support for managing virtual machines running under QEMU or KVM virtualization
platforms, as well as the existing Xen support.
