I have installed Linux with KVM in my machine.But when i gave "kvm-ok" command in the terminal,it showed "Your CPU doesnot support KVM extensions". When i checked again,came to know CPU doesn't have VT extensions and hence doesn't support KVM.Does it stop me from running my goolge tv emulator? Or do i need to strictly go for CPU with KVM support?

  • If this is closed, please suggest where these questions should go. I am "programming" (or "developing software") for google-tv and think this question is directly on topic. I would like to know where to find these answers if not on SO. – Dusty Campbell Sep 19 '11 at 20:51

YES.

Google TV emulation is not currently supported on Linux workstations that do not have KVM, nor is it currently supported on Windows and Macintosh platforms.

    Their statement is not entirely true. The emulator may run on workstations that do not support KVM, but it will be slow as a dog. I mean really slooooowwww!! – Steve Dec 01 '11 at 17:32
