Bug Description

I was trying to run virtualization tests on a piece of ARM hardware I have which is installed with raring, and I got an error saying that 'kvm' is not a valid file or directory. Trying to run that command gives a command-not-found message, so I tried on my own system running saucy and whilst it ran, it gave a warning about being deprecated and that we should use 'qemu-system-x86_64' instead. That command appears to work in both places, so I think we need to swap it for 'kvm' in the script.

Pretty straightforward, just a simple script update
