Description Anton Filimonov 2009-05-23 20:18:01 UTC
After an upgrade to gentoo-sources-2.6.29-r4 and kvm-85-r2 virtual machines fail to start. Running something like kvm -hda test.img does nothing, top shows kvm process is running, but there is no visible output.

dmesg shows some wierd errors (see attachement).


Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. load kvm-intel
2. try starting kvm virtual machine
3. look at dmesg output

Actual Results:  
see attachement


Expected Results:  
virtual machine boots

dmesg output
Comment 2 Anton Filimonov 2009-05-23 20:33:23 UTC
Bug appears to happen with app-emulation/kvm-kmod-85. Using module provided with kernel works just fine.
Comment 3 Anton Filimonov 2009-05-25 19:03:37 UTC
Sorry, it was a stupid kernel upgrade process error (using old config from 2.6.27) :(
Just completed make distclean & make menuconfig & make & make modules_install and everything work's just fine.
