You have been subscribed to a public bug: on x86_64, kvm modules load automatically. on ppc64, they do not.
The user has to manually load them via /etc/modules or something like: grep -q kvm_ /proc/modules || modprobe kvm_hv || modprobe kvm_pr Should / could kvm modules be automatically loaded on ppc64?
