The package names switched some years ago IIRC. In synaptic, please look for the following package names. This should be enough to use KVM with command line utils. You can install them step by step. qemu-utils qemu-block-extra ibverbs-providers libvirt-daemon virtinst qemu-system-x86 libxml2-utils netcat-openbsd libvirt-clients-qemu iptables libvirt-daemon-system parted mdevctl dnsmasq-base dns-root-data Finally, a useful GUI tool is: virt-manager To avoid strange effects involving missing permissions, you might want to add your usual user to the groups ``kvm'' and ``libvirt''. -- kind regards Frank
