A funny thing happened when I recently attempted to create a KVM virtual machine on my Sony Vaio laptop. Upon loading the kvm-intel.ko kernel module, I receive a rather peculiar error message:
kvm: disabled by BIOS
Disabled by BIOS? Although the error really didn't say much, I could only assume that somehow the BIOS provided by Sony for my laptop disabled Intel VT by default. A bit of googling turned up this article, as well as this KB article from Sony, showing my assumption to be correct.
