Description

I install everything in Linux with Ubuntu 22.04.5 LTS.
I followed this setup guideline: https://github.com/microsoft/OmniParser/tree/master/omnitool
after running ./manage_vm.sh create
it successfully built docker image: windows-local and run a docker container: omni-windows
but after several minutes, docker container existed.

after checking the docker container log. There is error "ERROR: KVM acceleration not available (device file missing), this will cause a major loss of performance"
below is the docker container log.

Research direction

Start with the omnitool setup guideline and the manage_vm.sh create entry point, then inspect the reported Docker container log on Ubuntu 22.04.5 LTS. Check the FAQ referenced in the log for the expected KVM prerequisites and supported environment. Done means the documented setup either provides KVM acceleration or clearly reports the supported fallback behavior.
