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

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.

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

Hi all, I''m testing a windows 2003r2 installation on Centos 5 so i''im wondering about the reliability of Windows PV drivers on a domU running on the GPL "flavor" of XEN. - which are the most stable PV drivers GPL''ed ones or XenSource ones? - is safe running the XenSource ones on a GPL XEN machine or vice-versa? thanks, -- Ruggero Tonelli

Hi XEN-Community, I''m trying to build the actual version of the XEN gplpv (win-pv) drivers. I use the a Windows XP machine with the WinDDK 7600.16385.1 and Wix 3.0 like suggested in the BUILD.txt The building process itself seems to be working, at least there are no compiler error. (I just made the "makedist") Instead, the final *.msi files and the drivers itself are nowhere

Hi, Is there anyone following this list who could compile any version of nvidia driver on Ubuntu 7.10 or Fedora 8 running XEN?

Hi, I have a strange problem with my networking setup. I read all forums around the world where people had similar problems, but couldn''t find a solution. I have an Attansic L1 gigeth chip on my mainboard. This chip works OK in stock Ubuntu Gutsy (development) 2.6.22-9-generic kernel. When I boot into Xen, and after the bridge is created, the network stops working. Some info: - If I

Hi all, Just wondering if anybody knows the answer to this mystery? I upgraded my Dom0 from Xen 3.0.4 + kernel 2.6.16.33-xen to Xen 3.1.0 + kernel 2.6.18-xen. After the upgrade, my domU (WInXP home edition) popped up a message saying that it needed to be re-registered with Microsoft, owing to significant changes in the hardware environment on which it is running. Something about windows

Hi, I''ve noticed that on a Xen cluster with three nodes (two E5620 CPUs and one E5140 CPU) live migration works perfectly in between to two E5620 nodes, but fails to and from the E5140. The error message is about a HVM context not being able to be set. I strongly suspect the use 238 GPPVL drivers, but I cannot uninstall them at this point because someone else needs the server. Could

Hi there. I have been dealing with a conundrum off and on with a VPS of mine. Windows 2003 Standard 32 bit on a Xen HVM instance. Been trying to get the GPLPV drivers working to help boost performance but always seem to run into one major issue: The PV network device looks like it works but actual connectivity is non-existant. Everything else in the GPLPV driver suite works fine. What I want to

Hello James, I am doing quite rigorous torture tests with Xen and GPLPV. Let me first repeat the test setup: Use Xen 4.1.1 and kernel 2.6.32.36 (commit ae333e9).

Install GPLPV, iometer 2006.07.27, prime95 26.6 x64,

Hello, what is the right way to disable XFree86 and wdm listening ports tcp 6000 and tcp 1024. I read in man XFree86 about the -nolisten tcp option and tried to set in /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/xdm :0 local /usr/X11R6/bin/X -nolisten tcp but it was not successful. What is the right way to close the ports without use of IPFW? Your help would be appreciated. Thank?s Wolfgang
