Hi,
well, fake package is for something totally different. It won't allow you to run anything, it's there for testing purposes only, you won't be able to run a VM.
Please try to uninstall it (at worst reinstall the node:-)

Then you should see a proper reporting again. Are you sure your Cluster is having the compatible CPU type? Please attach the new logs once the hypervisor is without the "fake" package…

Thanks,
michal
