I run KVM on FC9 with whatever comes with on a quad Intel Q9400, and that's 
where I did my test install. I'm going to try the live CD later today, and if it 
works well I'll install on a laptop, since it can't really hurt anything.

I also run FC9 on my dual-core AMD Acer laptop, KVM works there, and on a hacked 
FC6 system with dual-core i6600 and a more recent version of KVM (65 from 
memory). That runs the system I'm writing on, which is RH8 upgraded in stages to 
FC9.
