i had a pretty terrible experience too, but then i was using vbox3.

at first i was happy that vbox3 worked, then not so happy when it seemed not to 
work well...

also, i think that there could be more people testing on kvm.

but this thread should give a fairly good indication on how good this actually 
works.

(btw: you have to reboot your host and client to see this happening)

i had to retry 3 times a new installation because of freezes...

maybe the OP could specify a few things on how exactly what happens when doing 
what?
