Let me re-emphasize the last comment from jrigling: "apt-get install qemu-kvm" solves the problem in karmic for me. It uninstalls "kvm" and "qemu" packages from jaunty and installs the new "qemu-kvm" package from karmic. Problem gone.
This is more likely an installer / upgrade bug than a kernel bug in karmic. -- Certain VMs do not run under KVM using karmic's kernel https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/379991 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Server Team, which is subscribed to qemu-kvm in ubuntu. -- 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
