Put in KVM (Kernel-based Virtual Machine) into my 64 bit Ubuntu 14.04 LTS per: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/KVM/Installation
In the terminal:
kvm-ok INFO: /dev/kvm exists KVM acceleration can be used
OK so the KVM is in.
When I run the Android Emulator there is no change from the way the Emulator ran before I put in the KVM.
I've looked in to the various settings within Android Studio, and I found nothing obvious about KVM.
Does Android Studio have a setting somewhere to enable KVM?

Android Studio 1.5 and 2.0 do not have such option any more. Update: that is because the team has made KVM mandatory. And see comments from Google employees claiming that their new 2.0 emulator is also KVM-based.
You can use the emulator -accel-check command-line option to check whether you have KVM installed. Alternatively, you can install the cpu-checker package containing the kvm-ok command.
Hardware acceleration is enabled by default if your Target API level is >=14, but can also be explicitly enabled. If your application uses only standard views and Drawable s, turning it on globally should not cause any adverse drawing effects.
