As a workaround for kernels 2.6.28: - The only source file that have a reference to KVM_CAP_DESTROY_MEMORY_REGION_WORKS is kvm-all.c - If you look at that file, there is a comment that states the problem is related to kvm 80 or earlier (before feb 2009) - Because the package now is kvm 84, and th

Vianney- Thanks for the investigative reporting. I'm going to mark this as "won't fix" against Jaunty, and target it for Karmic. We should see it fixed there ;-) :-Dustin ** Also affects: qemu (Ubuntu Jaunty) Importance: Undecided Status: New ** Changed in: qemu (Ubuntu Jaunty)

Bad news: KVM_CAP_DESTROY_MEMORY_REGION_WORKS only appears in kvm.h from kernel 2.6.29. As jaunty is based on 2.6.28, it seems we won't be able to use kvm acceleration directly in qemu. We'll have to stick with the modified qemu provided by kvm until the next version of ubuntu. -- qemu cannot use
