Debian Squeeze not seeing SVM cpu extension

shadowers · 07-17-2011, 02:46 PM

I have an Opteron 6128 that supports AMD-V/SVM. SVM is enabled in bios, but Squeeze does not list SVM in /proc/cpuinfo. What is the problem here?

Can you modprobe kvm ?

I have actually found this problem is across any distribution I use provided I am in the xen-Dom0 kernel. I tested modprobe kvm in Gentoo and it said:

Code:

FATAL: Module kvm not found.

I assume this will be the same in Debian.

Strange, the module insertion should at least display an error...

Maybe try to install another distro in order to make tests ?
