Unable to remove GPLPV drivers without breaking win2k3 domU
I have a Win2K3 domU (and thankfully an image backup of the LVM volume
that holds its system disk) I previously installed GPLPV v0.8.9 drivers,
the domU boots OK with or without the /GPLPV switch in boot.ini, however
with the /GPLPV switch it tries and fails to use the Xen network driver,
and so the machine is network-less, so for the past few months I''ve left
it using pure HVM

Release 0.8.8 of GPL PV drivers for Windows
In the spirit of ''release early, release often'', here''s another binary
release...
http://www.meadowcourt.org/WindowsXenPV-0.8.8.zip
The only thing that''s changed since 0.8.7 is that xennet should work
under amd64 again.

New binary release of GPL PV drivers for Windows
I''ve just uploaded a new binary release of the GPL PV drivers for
Windows - release 0.6.3. Fixes in this version are:
. Should now work on any combination of front and backend bit widths
(32, 32p, 64). Previous crashes that I thought were due to Intel arch
were actually due to this problem.
. The vbd driver will now not enumerate ''boot'' disks (eg those normally
serviced

Rebooting Windows guests when running xm reboot
I just installed Windows 2008 x86_64 on Xen 3.2 that I compiled from

GPLPV on windows 7, clean shutdown not working in some case
We have many domUs windows 7 64 bit on production systems, all with
build gplpv_Vista2008x64_0.11.0.238.msi.
Randomly, during install shutdown monitor service wasn''t created and we
not understand why.
All other things about gplpv are working, someone can help me to solve
this problem please?

GPLPV uninstaller
I''ve just uploaded a couple of .bat files to
http://www.meadowcourt.org/downloads/gplpv_uninstall_bat.zip that will
manually (and forcibly) uninstall GPLPV from your computer, which seems
to be necessary before doing upgrades from some versions. Run the
uninstaller, reboot, then install. There is a 0.9.x and a 0.10.x
uninstaller, which differ slightly, but the basic steps performed are:

Release 0.9.0 of GPL PV Drivers for Windows
I''ve just put up the latest release of the GPLPV drivers for Windows.
This release involved a fairly big rewrite of the stuff that talks to
Windows as I changed from WDF to WDM. WDF is a newer framework from
Microsoft which makes it easier to write drivers as a lot of the state
management stuff is done for you. It also means shipping a great big dll
around with the drivers (note the

LVM related bug in the GPL PV drivers for Windows?
Dear Xen users!
In case you were struggling with recent version of th gplpv drivers,
I''ve possibly found an LVM related bug in it, and reported to James
Harper. Thats''s the point:
I''ve tested the mentioned version of your driver on top of 32bit
xen-3.2.1 32bit xen-3.3.0 and 64bit xen xen-3.3.0 hypervisors, dom0 was
always an appropriate version of a 32bit PAE kernel,

GPLPV / Passing devices to HVM
Hello everyone,
just wondered after I read about devices passed through in HVM if the
following if still true: (for Xen3.2.1)
- a Domain running in HVM cannot get forwarded any other device than a
USB device.
- the USB device forwarding is not too stable
- PCI forwarding is not possible without processor support and Xen support.
- The GPLPV tools won''t change anything with that.

win-pvdrivers: shutdownmon.exe does not start
Hi,
I tried using win-pvdrivers 0.8.4 on German Windows XP Pro SP2. Xen is
3.1, comes with Ubuntu 7.10.
Everything seems to work well except the shutdown monitor.
If I run shutdownmon.exe on the command line, windows gives an error
message stating it could not initialize shutdownmon.exe correctly.
Parameters passed to shutdownmon.exe don''t have any influence on the error.

Release 0.9.5 of GPL PV Drivers for Windows
I''ve just made my first ever attempt at an Nullsoft installer, so if you
want to try it download "Xen PV Drivers 0.9.5.exe" from
http://www.meadowcourt.org/downloads/
The installer should detect the version of windows you are running and
install the drivers. At the moment you''ll need to install the shutdown
monitor service manually, but you can do that from the start

Xen GPL PV Drivers, Windows 2003 unplanned shutdown
Hi,
I''ve recently started using the GPL PV Drivers (0.9.10) for a pair of
test machines, one XP and one 2003. XP works beautifully: Thank you for
the development efforts. 2003 works almost as well, with one exception.
When I either xm reboot or xm shutdown and subsequently restart the
virtual machine, at first login I get this dialogue:
The system has restarted after an unplanned
