Anyone found a fix for this? I am getting this error on Nobara 36 (Fedora fork) with Docker Desktop installed via the guide on the Docker website for Fedora.

You need to have KVM virtualization installed to be able to have /dev/kvm.

I installed all the dependency's as the guide said including KVM. I also already use virt-manager (which uses KVM) for other VMs.

Any updates on if there's a fix for this? I'm having the same problem

[dynamyc010]

the fix for this for me was to not use Docker Desktop, but instead use Docker from the arch repos (in my case)

Desktop seems to take up KVM and it seems containers themselves can't use it if it's running

Same issue on Mac M1. Not sure how to install kvm on m1.
