apt-get install qemu-kvm libvirt-bin virt-manager

Could not access KVM kernel module: Permission denied failed to initialize KVM: Permission denied

# The user for QEMU processes run by the system instance. It can be 
215 # specified as a user name or as a user id. The qemu driver will try to 
216 # parse this value first as a name and then, if the name doesn't exist, 
217 # as a user id. 
218 # 
219 # Since a sequence of digits is a valid user name, a leading plus sign 220 # can be used to ensure that a user id will not be interpreted as a user 
221 # name. 
222 # 
223 # Some examples of valid values are: 
224 # 
225 #       user = "qemu"   # A user named "qemu" 
226 #       user = "+0"     # Super user (uid=0) 
227 #       user = "100"    # A user named "100" or a user with uid=100 228 # 
229 #user = "root" 
230 user = "username" 
231 # The group for QEMU processes run by the system instance. It can be 232 # specified in a similar way to user. 
233 #group = "root" 
234 group = "groupname"
