Hello,
does anybody know why it seems that it`s not possible to build a kernel with "CONFIG_HAVE_KVM=n" ?
It always switches back to "y" with every kernel build and i have no clue, why.
i`m using 2.6.33 vanilla.
regards
Roland

It's an internal config symbol which is not visible in the menu
system and is always set up unconditionally based on the platform.
Just like "CONFIG_HAVE_MMU".
You want another symbols, like CONFIG_KVM.

thanks,
i had seen some bootmessage about kvm being active and thought that i still have seen it after disabling all kvm config options - but apparently it was my fault and i mixed things up.
indeed, KVM is OFF, even with HAVE_KVM=y.
so, sorry for the noise.
at least, it appears that this config option is confusing other people , too - see http://communities.vmware.com/message/1498691
