Name        : virt-what
Product     : Fedora 13
Version     : 1.3
Release     : 3.fc13
URL         : http://people.redhat.com/~rjones/virt-what/
Summary     : Detect if we are running in a virtual machine
Description :
virt-what is a shell script which can be used to detect if the program
is running in a virtual machine.

The program prints out a list of "facts" about the virtual machine,
derived from heuristics.  One fact is printed per line.

If nothing is printed and the script exits with code 0 (no error),
then it can mean either that the program is running on bare-metal or
the program is running inside a type of virtual machine which we don't
know about or cannot detect.

Current types of virtualization detected:
KVM, Xen, unaccelerated QEMU, VMWare, VirtualBox, VirtualPC,
OpenVZ, Virtuozzo, User-Mode Linux (UML).
