I forgot to mention that kvm-kmod rpm's are kernel based (they copy files to specific kernel folders.
I am right now in the process to build rpm's for several mainstream kernels from 5.2 and 5.3 for i386 systems.
you will be able to download it from http://www.plcomputers.net/download/plc-centos5-custom/ in few hours.
NOTICE: I am not veteran in rpm build's (but I had help from Farkas Levente considering proper compiling of kvm-kmod) so please first use them on non-production systems.

But my actual question is, what's the state of lfarkas repository? Can it be trusted? Sadly there is no frontpage on http://www.lfarkas.org/
Levente Farkas contributes on the centos-devel list and I have seen several other posts from people using those RPMs so yes, I trust them.
I have been asking for them to be put them into a repository... http://lists.centos.org/pipermail/centos-devel/2009-April/004419.html ...but I guess sorting out issues arising from CentOS 5.3 is higher priority right now.
Running KVM as an unpriviledged user is on my to-do list so I will follow the outcome of that thread with interest.
as i wrote to you this kmod rpm (as all other centos kmods) use weak-updates so the kernel version is not included in the version by desing. it's working with _all_ centos 5.x kernel.
anyway i'll provide these rpms until centos-5.4 released and lets see what will be in 5.4 and then... anyway my current suggestion to use kvm-84. as i be able to put together a consistent build far in my end i'll try to provide i386 rpms too, but as i only use 64bit hosts i only compile it.
