[arch-dev-public] kvm-modules package
With 2.6.22, we have had numerous reports that kvm locks up or doesn't load. On the other hand, according to Attila (http://bugs.archlinux.org/task/7598) we can use the kvm version shipped with 2.6.22. This would be easier and it is better tested than the one we build externally. Are there any reasons for keeping kvm-modules separately?

I think last time it was the internal ones that were broken/out-dated...

That's my memory, too, though more the latter than the former. I know I was using the ones in the kernel until we took them out, and they worked great for me. - P
