  I installed Sun's virtualbox manually, because portage couldn't build
it.  DMESG says...

kvm: no hardware support

...and during bootup, I get...

 * Starting VirtualBox kernel module ...
 * modprobe vboxdrv failed. Please use 'dmesg' to find out why

  My machine is a 2-year-old Dell D530 with a dual core.  Here is the
first one, according to /proc/cpuinfo
