I guess the main problem from my perspective is documentation & "spit

What I'm trying to say is Vmware is bundled so that it is easy to
implement! I want to use open source solutions & am sceptical of
commercial companies who have "free" & commercial offerings. I want to
try the alternatives but to say the least KVM is a pig to implement
considering *buntu has made this the default. I googled for how to's
but there was a fair bit of ambiguity & confusion in the
implementation.
What information are you missing about implementing KVM? I will try to
blog a complete howto using libvirt (and if needed virt-manager). I do
it all a bit manually, but it works and I am happy to share it with
others.
If there is a genuine need for it, I will put something together in the
coming days.

Dave,
I have struggled for 2 days to set KVM up! I have 5 Vmware & 2
new servers that could do with this knowledge.
Thanks Cary
