I just installed CentOS 6.2 32 bit today. When I try to start the Virtual Machine Manager I get a error: Packages required for KVM usage The following packages are not installed: qemu-kvm These are required to create KVM guests locally. Would you like to install them now? If I click on the [YES] button I'm told that the packages could not be found in any software source.
