First , thank you for new release of kvm. I have a few problems to
report with kvm-51.
1. When running an exisiting winxp ACPI multiprocessor HAL with -smp 2,
sometimes it will hang on boot.
2. This may not be a major problem but cpu usage is a litte higher when
idle on release 51 than 50. It was very low on 50, the lowest I've seen
in a long time.
3. For me personally, the best performing release to date is release 50.
Regards
Haydn

Notes:
If you use the modules bundled with kvm-51, you can use any version
of Linux from 2.6.9 upwards.
If you use the modules bundled with Linux 2.6.20, you need to use
kvm-12.
If you use the modules bundled with Linux 2.6.21, you need to use
kvm-17.
Modules from Linux 2.6.22 and up will work with any kvm version from
kvm-22. Some features may only be available in newer releases.
For best performance, use Linux 2.6.23-rc2 or later as the host.
