There is no kvm/kvm-source package for etch it was rather unstable for me at the time to push it into etch. A backport should be easy enough, pointing your deb-src lines to unstable repository and do: apt-get -b source kvm You will need some dev tools and build-dependencies for kvm. I didn't try this myself so I don't know how well itworks and what else is needed. Taking the current debs from unstable could work as well.
