Package Descriptions

kvm-kmp-default
Updated kernel modules for KVM (Kernel-based Virtual Machine)

This package contains updated kernel modules which are recommended for
enhanced functionality of KVM. The Linux kernel rpm already contains
kvm modules, but with this package installed and the modules of this
package loaded, certain fixes which are not yet available in the kernel
rpm.
To verify the kernel to which this package is built for, compare the
postfix of this package has after "kvm-kmp-" with the postfix after
"kernel-", e.g. kvm-kmp-default contains updated modules for the
kernel-default with the exact same version number.
To take advantage of KVM in general, you need qemu-kvm (which is
included in the package kvm) which contains the PC hardware simulation
that is needed for full virtualisation.
KVM guests implemented using qemu-kvm can be monitored using libvirt
which contains a hypervisor for managing multible QEMU and KVM and Xen
virtual machines. virt-manager provides a graphical application for
connecting to and controlling virtual machines based on libvirt.
