Xeon X3350 (4 cores @ 2.66GHz), hardware virtualization enabled.
Specifically:
flags           : fpu vme de pse tsc msr pae mce cx8 apic sep mtrr pge
mca cmov pat pse36 clflush dts acpi mmx fxsr sse sse2 ss ht tm pbe
syscall nx lm constant_tsc arch_perfmon pebs bts rep_good pni monitor
ds_cpl vmx smx est tm2 ssse3 cx16 xtpr sse4_1 lahf_lm

I didn't try any other distro yet. I'll give debian/fedora a try right now.
