That means you have two AMD cores with hardware virtualization support as known as AMD-V (Pacifica). It's a good start. But sometimes it is not enough. So it is advisable check out in the BIOS that virtualization is enabled. >> You should also check that virtualization is enabled in the BIOS. > Probably I did not know what to look for, but I did not see anything in > the bios that mentioned "virtual" in any context. Here [1] you can see an example, although in that case it is for Intel processors. It may also be the case where the BIOS does not have something that allows enable or disable support. If you're using a desktop computer you may want to install Virt-Manager [2], that provides an interface similar to the VMWare player: # aptitude install virt-manager >> Namaste also for you :) > Thank you.

Some time ago I read a very interesting book (at least for me) called "Metamanagement" (written by Fred Kofman) where the author spoke of this beautiful greeting used in Nepal and how he was marveled for their meaning. Something like "I see the divine light that shines from your soul" or "I recognize in you the essence that I am" or "I salute you as one in which you and I are one".
