Hi, Dustin.

I would like to test the backport of KVM-84 for Hardy Heron server amd64. As I commented above, I found that a KVM process of a VM with high rate of I/O terminated with segmentation fault in an installation of Hardy Heron server amd64 with KVM-62.

Adding the following lines to /etc/apt/sources.list

deb http://ppa.launchpad.net/ubuntu-virt/ppa/ubuntu hardy main
deb-src http://ppa.launchpad.net/ubuntu-virt/ppa/ubuntu hardy main

The unique reference that I found about KVM-84 is given by the following package:

# aptitude show kvm-source
Package: kvm-source
State: partially configured
Automatically installed: yes
Version: 1:84+dfsg-0ubuntu12.1~rc5ppa1
Priority: opcional
Section: misc
Maintainer: Ubuntu Core Developers <email address hidden>
Uncompressed Size: 1655k
Depends: build-essential, bzip2, debhelper (>= 5), dkms, linux-headers, linux-headers-generic, linux-headers-server, make
Suggests: kernel-package
Description: Source for the KVM driver
 This package provides the source code for the KVM kernel modules. The kvm package is also required in order to make use of
 these modules. Kernel source or headers are required to compile these modules.

 Not needed for Ubuntu systems.

This is the last version that would fix the bug? It would only be necessary to install this package and to compile?
