Quoting Yolkfull Chow <yzhou@xxxxxxxxxx>:
$ lsmod | grep kvm kvm_amd 38452 0 kvm 163952 1 kvm_amd # chkconfig --level 35 kvm off error reading information on service kvm: No such file or directory I tried to disable qemu on Gnome; System -> Administration -> Services -> highlight qemu -> Disable (kvm is NOT there) Next boot $ lsmod | grep kvm kvm_amd 38452 0 kvm 163952 1 kvm_amd still there
If you want kvm related kernel modules not to be loaded at next boot, you can add then into blacklist: /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist.con
Hi Yolkfull, Thanks for your advice. Could you please explain in more detail. $ cat /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist.conf # watchdog drivers blacklist i8xx_tco # framebuffer drivers blacklist aty128fb blacklist atyfb blacklist radeonfb blacklist i810fb blacklist cirrusfb blacklist intelfb blacklist kyrofb blacklist i2c-matroxfb blacklist hgafb blacklist nvidiafb blacklist rivafb blacklist savagefb blacklist sstfb blacklist neofb blacklist tridentfb blacklist tdfxfb blacklist virgefb blacklist vga16fb # ISDN - see bugs 154799, 159068 blacklist hisax blacklist hisax_fcpcipnp # sound drivers blacklist snd-pcsp What shall I add on this config file? How can I start KVM after booting if needed. TIA B.R.
