Much more useful info, I have VMs running on old (6600), new core2 (Q9400?), and 
AMD X2 (FC11 on a laptop), and all will run fc12 usefully.

I have fc12 VMs running under fc9, fc11, and fc13, the last two doing production 
things. Don't recall doing anything special, however, I am running all VMs from 
qemu-kvm command line, not adding a a hypervisor to the problem. All work pretty 
well, do add "-usbdevice tablet" to the command line, makes it smoother for a 
reason I've forgotten and not about to dig from my notes. :-(
