Package: qemu-kvm
Version: 0.14.0+dfsg-1~tls
Severity: normal

Hi,

The kvm module won't load on this machine because of TXT (I don't know exactly
what it is but it stands for "Trusted Execution Technology"). I get the
following lines in dmesg:

[  138.722253] kvm: disable TXT in the BIOS or  activate TXT before enabling
KVM
[  138.722256] kvm: disabled by bios

First, the error message is not really clear because I don't understand if I am
supposed to disable or enable TXT. More importantly, I get the same behavior
whether I disable or enable TXT in the BIOS and I couldn't get kvm to start...

I can provide more infomation / perform some tests if needed.

Thanks!
