Bug Description
I'm relatively new at filing a bug so please bear with me.
I'm trying to run Testdrive on a Dell Optiplex 755 with a quad core processor. Hardware Virtualization is turned on in the Bios.
When I run TestDrive after the menu where I select Try Ubuntu without Installing (or select install, those are the only two options I've tried) I get a black screen in the VM and the following in the terminal window:
-------
1. Ubuntu Desktop (lucid)
+-cache--> [2009-12-09 07:16:08] lucid-desktop-
2. Ubuntu Server (lucid)
3. Ubuntu Alternate (lucid)
4. Ubuntu DVD (lucid)
5. Ubuntu Netbook Remix (lucid)
6. Other (prompt for ISO URL)
Select an ISO to testdrive: 1

Could not initialize KVM, will disable KVM support

I'm not sure where any logs would exist but if there is something I can provide let me know.

Can you paste the output of running "kvm-ok"?
