Thanks Guys,

The processor does not support VT-x technology, I have purchased a new
laptop that support such technology as I am about to embark on the journey
to RHCSA.

Thanks again all

Sometimes the CPU is compatible (ie, has a vmx or svm flag), but the
Virtualization must be turned on in the computer's BIOS.

Your CPU is not VT-x capable (you should see "vmx" flag in 
/proc/cpuinfo if it is).

Yes, KVM requires virtualization support by the CPU as it does only full
virtualization, no paravirtualization (not to be confused with
paravirtualized driver support through virtio).

[CentOS] Error connecting to KVM on CentOS 6.2

2012-05-12 Thread Earl Ramirez
Hello List Mates,

I don't know if here is the right place for this question if it's not I
will appreciate it if you can point me to the right mailing list.

I have successfully installed KVM on my x86_64 laptop, however I am getting
the following error when I try to connect "QEMU" from the Virtual Machine
Manager

Error polling connection 'qemu:///system': internal error Cannot find
suitable emulator for x86_64

I using CentOS 6.2

[user1@trining ~]$ cat /etc/redhat-release
CentOS release 6.2 (Final)

Below are the processor that I am using, however I do not see any svm or
vmx flags and there is no option to change anything in the BIOS for the
processor. Does this mean I need to replace my current laptop to get KVM to
work?

I am running the x86-64 version of CentOS 6.2 with the latest updates

[user1@training ~]$ uname -a

All the required packages have been installed

libvirt-cim-0.5.14-2.el6.x86_64
libvirt-qmf-0.3.0-7.el6_2.x86_64

None of the modules are installed, which I believe is related to the svm
and vmx missing from the processor flags

[user1@training ~]$ lsmod | grep kvm

[user1@training ~]$ modprobe kvm

[user1@training ~]$ lsmod | grep kvm
kvm   305988  0
[user1@training ~]$

I have been googling all night everything that I have tried did not
resolved.

Any thoughts?
