The attached DKMS module RPM spec file WorksForMe.

I'm far from being an rpm build internals specialist... but actually,
taking Jeremy's src.rpm and the relative spec file I had only to:
- adapt spec file for kvm-10 that was released,
- change the configure line eliminating the "--with-patched-kernel"
part (as said in kvm docs)
- add in %files section the 3 kernel modules to be built (in a raw way...)
- build the rpm
- install it against my standard 2869 based fc6.

And in less that one hour I was able to have a qemu/kvm wxp sp2
virtual machine running very smoothly being able to connect
transparently to the internet like my physical one:
- seconds to create a 9Gb disk
- 5 minutes for the first part of installation/disk partition (from hd
iso image)
- 9 minutes for the second part with all typical parameters no customizations
- 20 minutes to apply sp2 ita (from hd iso)
!
At this moment with my system (last try beginning of december) I was
not able to reach the same results after days of work and search with
xen: only result was a black screen after reboot after initial
setup.... Eventually I will try again now with latest packages
released for fc6.

But the easiness of kvm apply astonished me!

1 vote more for kvm extension to fc6 user base!
