-qemu-kvm is a generic and open source virtualizer. qemu-kvm achieves
-near native performances by leveraging the kvm-kmod modules and
-executing the guest code directly on the host CPU. Slackware provides
-pre-built 32/64 bit x86 kvm-kmod modules or you can build different
-versions with the kvm-kmod package.
-
-While qemu-kvm can virtualize many system guest types (e.g. alpha, arm,
-i386, ppc, x86_64, s390, sparc), not all these system guest types utilize
-the kvm-kmod modules. For those system guest types that don't utilize
-the kvm-kmod modules, it is recommended to use the qemu package instead
-of this qemu-kvm package.
-
-The qemu-kvm SlackBuild renames the primary binary from 'qemu-system-
-x86_64' to 'qemu-kvm' so that the qemu SlackBuild won't overwrite it
-if both packages are installed on the same host system. The qemu-kvm
-SlackBuild patches the installed udev rules so that you no longer are
-required to use the system group 'kvm' as the default. The 'users'
-group is set as the default in this SlackBuild. If you want to use a
-different group, then run the SlackBuild like this:
- KVMGROUP=group sh qemu-kvm.SlackBuild
-
-Don't forget to load the 'kvm-intel' or 'kvm-amd' module (depending on
-your processor) prior to running 'qemu-kvm'.
-
-spice and usbredir are optional dependencies.
