    How to stop KVM start at boot

    Hi folks.

    Host - ubuntu 9.10 64bit
    Virtualizer - KVM

    I need to stop KVM starting at boot. I added following 2 lines at the bottom of /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist.conf
    Code:
    blacklist kvm
blacklist kvm-amd
    Reboot PC

    It doesn't work.

    $ lsmod | grep kvm
    Code:
    kvm_amd                41556  0 
kvm                   190648  1 kvm_amd
    Please what further command I have to run in order to activate the new blacklist.conf ?

    TIA

    B.R.

    you may also want to amend the second line:
    Code:
    blacklist kvm-amd
    as the module appears to have an underscore in its name rather than a hyphen:
    Code:
    kvm_amd                41556  0
