I have VT and VT-d on my bios, I enabled VT both and it doesn't help.
When I try to use the command eric gave (thanks for that) I have the same
problems with VT and VT-d enabled or disabled.
When I enabled VT-d I had an error from abrt that said that most likely my
bios weren't configured right so now only VT is enabled.

The result of virt-host-validate is (its the same for VT/VT-d enabled or
disabled):
  QEMU: Checking for hardware
virtualization                                 : PASS
  QEMU: Checking for device
/dev/kvm                                         : FAIL (Check that the
'kvm-intel' or 'kvm-amd' modules are loaded & the BIOS has enabled
virtualization)
  QEMU: Checking for device
/dev/vhost-net                                   : WARN (Load the
'vhost_net' module to improve performance of virtio networking)
  QEMU: Checking for device
/dev/net/tun                                     : PASS
   LXC: Checking for Linux >=
2.6.26                                         : PASS

My problem now is that I don't know how to enable kvm-intel (my proccessor
is intel branded, so I guess I need kvm-intel, right?). Tryed with modprobe
but it says opperation not supported, so what is the right command and is
this the right way to go (at least as far as we know from that info)?
