 KVM (Kernel-based Virtual Machine) is a full virtualization solution
 for Linux on x86 hardware containing virtualization extensions
-(Intel VT or AMD-V).  KVM requires QEMU-KVM to create and run virtual
-machines (e.g. Windows, Linux, BSD) under full system emulation or user
-mode emulation.  QEMU-KVM is a slightly modified QEMU designed to work
-with KVM kernel modules.
+(Intel VT or AMD-V).  KVM is divided into the KVM-KMOD package
+(kernel modules) and the QEMU-KVM package (slightly modified QEMU)
+which are both available as separate Slackbuilds.
 
-KVM consists of a loadable kernel module, 'kvm.ko', that provides the
-core virtualization infrastructure and a processor specific module,
-'kvm-intel.ko' or 'kvm-amd.ko'.  For improved performance QEMU-KVM also
-works with 'virtio' modules.  Slackware provides pre-built 'kvm' and
-'virtio' modules that work with this package.
+QEMU-KVM is a generic and open source virtualizer.  QEMU-KVM achieves
+near native performances by leveraging the KVM-KMOD modules and
+executing the guest code directly on the host CPU.  QEMU-KVM can
+virtualize many system guest types (e.g. alpha, arm, i386, ppc, x86_64,
+s390, sparc).  Slackware provides pre-built KVM-KMOD modules or you
+can build different versions with the KVM-KMOD SlackBuild.
 
-This requires a system group (which defaults to 'kvm') which decides who
-can use qemu-kvm.  If you want to use a different group, e.g. 'users',
-then run the script like this:  KVMGROUP=users sh qemu-kvm.SlackBuild

 After package installation, make sure you have the KVMGROUP present on
 your system and that all desired users are members of that group.
