Here is an example how to use KVM virtualization on SUSE Linux 11.1.

open a console and enter:

yast -i kvm
yast -i virt-manager
/etc/init.d/libvirtd start
chkconfig libvirtd on
virt-manager

Now comes the first pitfall: You have to select localhost, then new. Otherwise you will not be able to create new virtual machines.

Install virtinst

Suddenly you will find out you need to install virtinst.
