KVM kernel module error
15,268
I am by no means an expert, however from what I know this could happen because either:
a) Your CPU does not support hardware virtualization
b) CPU does support virtualization, but you have not enabled it in BIOS.

I just installed qemu and ran
qemu-system-i386 -hda ubuntu32 -cdrom ~/Downloads/ubuntu-12.04-desktop-i386.iso -m 1024 -boot d
and got some errors
Could not access KVM kernel module: No such file or directory failed to initialize KVM: No such file or directory Back to tcg accelerator.
Anyone know why this happens?

Aras over 11 yearsI had the same issue and trying to load the KVM kernel module would give this error: FATAL: Error inserting kvm_intel /lib/modules kernel/arch/x86/kvm/kvm-intel.ko Operation not supported -- your solution worked for me as well. I just had to shutdown and unplug the laptop after changing the BIOS setting to enable virtualization support

Programster almost 10 yearsI have the same issue on ubuntu 12.04 server. I even installed
cpu-checker
and rankvm-ok
which returnedINFO: /dev/kvm exists
andKVM acceleration can be used
. Have run kvm in the past on this machine, stumped as to what I've done differently this time.
