Hi, this seems like a stupid question given the # of comments and relevant fedora bug, but i haven't seen this asked anywhere.

[Bug 1201092] Re: Cannot load kvm_amd module - (says disabled by bios)
All, first of all I have AMD E-350D, you have AMD E-350. I don't know what the D stands for, but we don't have the same identical CPU. I give you the feedback from the kernel developers and from the MainBoard vendor. I had already tried the above command (rdmsr). It says 1 ... DISABLED. Another thing - important - VirtualBox behavior is misleading: it lets you check the flag to enable the AMD-V extension, but looking at logs, it seems that the extension is not being loaded. Therefore, there are two possiblities. Kernel developers say: it may be a bug in the BIOS. The vendor (GygaByte) says: it's a problem with Linux kernel. BTW, I can understand that everybody says that it's someone else fault, but I can't understand that GigaByte asks me to install windows and test it over windows. Right now I am stuck as I have a spare partition starting after 1.7GB and windows doesn't want to install on such partition. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Server Team, which is subscribed to kvm in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1201092 Title: Cannot load kvm_amd module - (says disabled by bios) To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/kvm/+bug/1201092/+subscriptions -- Ubuntu-server-bugs mailing list Ubuntu-server-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com Modify settings or unsubscribe at: https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-server-bugs
[Bug 1201092] Re: Cannot load kvm_amd module - (says disabled by bios)
@maxadamo, I wasn't actually saying bug in the bios - I was suggesting the feature was turned off in the bios. Could you please boot into the bios (or EFI) and check the 'virtualization' settings? Or if you've already done that, and it was enabled, please let us know - Thanks! -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Server Team, which is subscribed to kvm in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1201092 Title: Cannot load kvm_amd module - (says disabled by bios) To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/kvm/+bug/1201092/+subscriptions -- Ubuntu-server-bugs mailing list Ubuntu-server-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com Modify settings or unsubscribe at: https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-server-bugs

@Serge ... I am an experienced sysadmin, I work with Cloudstack ... therefore I work with a lot of KVM machines. I don't want to prove anything about myself, but now can you be better ensured that I am able to access a Computer BIOS and switch a feature from ON to OFF and viceversa? :) I've also tried few weird suggestions from one developers and I paste you the content of the e-mail: You might try setting it to disabled in the BIOS to make sure it's not wired backwards. There also used to be some FUD about fully powering off the system around making changes to these settings. You might try unplugging the system for a few seconds and testing from there. I would also say that WakOnLan sometime works, sometime it doesn't. There is something weird with this motherboard, but until I run a test with Windows I am not able to say if the problem is Linux or the MainBoard. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Server Team, which is subscribed to kvm in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1201092 Title: Cannot load kvm_amd module - (says disabled by bios) To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/kvm/+bug/1201092/+subscriptions -- Ubuntu-server-bugs mailing list Ubuntu-server-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com Modify settings or unsubscribe at: https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-server-bugs

I don't want to prove anything about myself, but now can you be better ensured that I am able to access a Computer BIOS and switch a feature from ON to OFF and viceversa? :) Yup, thanks. Just wanted to make sure that had been checked. Did this *used* to work for you in an older kernel?
