I think it requires HVM ( egrep '^flags.*(vmx|svm)' /proc/cpuinfo ) from the CPU. So if kvm doesn't work you may use your VMs with qemu. Qemu/kvm supports VMware disc format so you might be able to use your old VMs without much effort.
I find that vbox is *much* faster than qemu in the absence of hardware virtualization support. The vbox devs say their graphics driver is what makes it faster.
