Finally discovered strange BIOS setting that would only take effect after a power cycle. So not only do you need the chip support, you need a BIOS that allows you to enable it (and the cpuinfo test won't check for that). I have heard horror stories of BIOS version which refuse to offer the ability to enable the feature (but never personally seen one), so merely checking vmx may not be enough. -- fedora-list mailing list fedora-list@xxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe: https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-list Guidelines: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Communicate/MailingListGuidelines
