Description Andrew Ross 2012-06-07 01:08:27 UTC
Description of problem:

22.1. Debugging and troubleshooting tools
brctl is a networking tool that inspects and configures the Ethernet bridge configuration in the Virtualization linux kernel.
[typo] s/linux/Linux/ 
[comment] Is there such a thing as a Virtualization Linux kernel in 6.x?

22.6. Enabling Intel VT-x and AMD-V virtualization hardware extensions in BIOS
The Intel VT-x extensions can be disabled in the BIOS. Certain laptop vendors have disabled the Intel VT-x extensions by default in their CPUs.
[...]
The virtualization extensions are sometimes disabled in BIOS, usually by laptop manufacturers. Refer to the following section for instructions on enabling disabled virtualization extensions. 
[typo] duplicate information - disable in laptop BIOS

22.6. Enabling Intel VT-x and AMD-V virtualization hardware extensions in BIOS
The BIOS settings for Intel® VT 
[typo] WUG says do not use ®. s/Intel® VT/Intel VT/


22.6. Enabling Intel VT-x and AMD-V virtualization hardware extensions in BIOS
When the machine has booted, run cat /proc/cpuinfo | grep "vmx svm". 
[bug] Command fails. Those two extensions are mutually exclusive (and regex is looking for an exact match). No need to cat | grep as grep can read from a file.

This one works (--color not required, but helps highlight)
grep --color -E "vmx|svm" /proc/cpuinfo
