I found some internet resources that listed the packages that were needed and to use lsmod | grep kvm to see if the modules are loaded (which the appear they are not? ) see below.... ( I also ran a command that seemed to confirm that the cpu's are VM compatible.)
Not sure where the issue is ... perhaps not all software is installed?
Thanks in advance for your help.
