Daniel,
thanks for your help in this matter. i have linux-2.6.31-gentoo and kvm-88-r1 
installed. 
i removed kvm-kmod-88-r1 and tried the in kernel modules but it was to no 
avail. when
attempting to modprobe kvm-intel i get an "unknown symbol" error. i also tried 
it with
everything compiled in the kernel but that didn't work either. no /dev/kvm is 
created
so kvm is automatically disabled. i filed a bug with kvm's maintainer on the 
sourceforge 
tracker but don't hold out a lot of hope as there are a lot of open bugs on it. 
i also 
contacted intel support and escalated the posting today so i will have to wait 
and see. 
and last but not least i posted on forums.gentoo.org in "other things gentoo" 
but have 
yet to receive any replies. if you have any further ideas i would be glad to 
hear them. 
once again thanks for you help in this matter. 

best regards,
James Erickson
