KVM is required to run this AVD. /dev/kvm device: permission denied.

Grant current user access to /dev/kvm

I had this mistake with Android Studio 3.0.1 on Ubuntu 18.04 when I run the emulator. You can try this answer. To add the user username to the kvm group, you could use:

sudo apt install qemu-kvm
sudo adduser $USER kvm

In my case it worked, albeit with a re-login required after the whole process.

first of all paste in your terminal

kvm-ok

if you got dev/kvm not exist, KVM acceleration can not be used , your CPU does not support virtualization, or it is disabled in the bios. Go into your bios and see if you can find a setting to enable it.
