Modprobe of kvm-intel fails:
---------------------------------------
$ sudo modprobe kvm-intel

Confirmed here. See bug 92291 regarding failure of kvm-intel to load. Then, I start to get a kernel "oops" with almost anything I run in a virutal terminal.

dmesg-modprobe Edit (1.1 KiB, text/plain)

I can confirm this. modprobe kvm fails, kvm-intel fails, and a subsequent oops is bound to happen (and did).

Attaching dmesg of the failed symbols
