CentOS - Nov 2008 - kmod-kvm

I use qemu-kvm on a Centos 5.2 server to run Windows XP virtually.
Usually a new kmod-kvm packages is released shortly after a kernel
update, and yum updates them both very nicely.  However, two new kernel
updates have been released now without a kmod-kvm update.  Does anyone
know if this package is still being supported?

Thanks
Jamie

Jamie,

You may want to check the centos-vert list archives, and/or ask there.

 From this recent thread

it seems kvm support is currently problematic.

Perhaps have a look at the free (as in beer) VMware Server - 
works-for-me (but have yet to upgrade to the new 2.0 release).
