Another newbie question...
I've looks all over the place, and just can't seem to figure this out. I
want to build and install everything but the kernel modules from release
source. This will allow me to test against the vanilla modules that come
with the kernel source. Can anyone point me in the right direction here?
Thanks in advance,
Stuart Sheldon

Pass --with-patched-kernel to configure, which means "use kvm modules that come
with the kernel" (and no external modules).
From http://kvm.qumranet.com/kvmwiki/HOWTO1 [Unpacking and configuring kvm
components]:
tar xzf kvm-release.tar.gz
cd kvm-release
./configure --prefix=/usr/local/kvm --with-patched-kernel
make
sudo make install
sudo /sbin/modprobe kvm-intel
# or: sudo /sbin/modprobe kvm-amd

The simplest way is to compile as usual, but when installing, do a 'sudo
make -C qemu install'. This will install qemu but not the modules.
