kvm modules not loading at boot

[RobFantini]

kvm was not starting .

this returned nothing:

lsmod|grep kvm

then this made kvm start

modprobe kvm_intel

lsmod|grep kvm
kvm_intel  172032  0
kvm  544768  1 kvm_intel
irqbypass  16384  1 kvm

Of course by default the module should load at boot.

Any suggestions on how to fix this ? It was probably caused by something I did.

Add kvm_intel to this file: /etc/modules
and run: update-grub

as expected that worked. I wonder why it was needed.
