On SL5.3 I've downloaded KVM, built it including the kernel module and
installed the .ko in /lib/modules... and the rest in /usr/local. Since the KVM
executables are called with their full hardcoded path by some utils, I also
had to symlink the executables in /usr/bin.
After modprobing the .ko you can use virt-manager or the libvirt based utils
to manage your VMs.
I haven't had any problems with that setup.
Cheers,
Andreas
