Hello, I''ve installed xen3 and asked myself whats better, image files or partions? I will prefer image files because of the flexible handling, but I''ve heard that real partions are faster. Thanks a lot for any hints? Daniel _______________________________________________ Xen-users mailing list Xen-users@lists.xensource.com http://lists.xensource.com/xen-users

Dear Users, Debian Etch 2.6.18.8-xen from xensource.com with Xen 3.3.0 on AMD64: After i want to start the HVM i get: VmError: fail to assign device(1:0.0): maybe it has already been assigned to other domain, or maybe it doesn''t exist.

Dear List, I need to make an Aladdin eToken Pro visible in a Linux guest HVM, but I cannot assign the device to any domU, while it''s being blocked by the dom0. To avoid this trouble I would like to pass the whole USB bus to the domU directly, via PCI passthrough. Now I use xen 3.3.0 from xensource and xen kernel from Ubuntu 8.04 2.6.24-19-xen, because the xensource xen kernel

Hi all, I have been having an issue for over a year with several Xen installations and have not been able to find out if this is just something I am missing. Basically I am trying to configure a firewall with two ethernet cards in a domU using pci passthrough. I am hiding the Ethernet cards at boot time via the pciback.hide kernel option. Right now I am running Xen 3.3.0 and the two Ethernet

Hello Xen folks, I use Debian Squeeze. I want to passthrough PCI devices. With the old stable Debian (grub legacy) i did not have problems. I edit /etc/default/grub like: quote: GRUB_CMDLINE_XEN_DEFAULT="quiet xen-pciback.permissive xen-pciback.hide=(00:14.2)(01:05.1)" I run "update-grub". Now i look at /boot/grub/grub.cfg: ### BEGIN /etc/grub.d/20_linux_xen

ls /lib/modules/2.6.34-xen-r4-dom0/kernel/drivers/xen/pciback pciback.ko passthru works fine with that module and 2.6.34-xen dom0/domU host/guest i can''t find analog for this module in 3.0 kernel. pci-stub i suppose is for KVM and doesn''t work with XEN - guest starts but has no PCI devices. can anyone give me some advice on make PCI passthru work in 3.0?

Is PCI pass-through available in the "standard" CentOS 5.1 kernel? From the "xm info" command, I see the major.minor version of Xen is 3.1, so I''m assuming it is and that I''m missing something basic. I''ve tried using "pciback.hide=(...)" in grub.conf, but after getting an error message about it not being valid, I realized that pciback is a

Hi all, I am trying to configure a Dom U to act as a firewall and therefore I need to pass one of the two ethernet cards to the Dom-U. I configured the Xen kernel to build pciback as a module and I am passing the hide option via boot parameters. I boot the pv machine via pygrub and I am able to see the ethernet device in Dom U as follows: Dom-U#lspci 02:00.0 Ethernet controller: Broadcom

Hello, I''m hoping someone may be able to push us in the right direction. I''m trying to get one of our products to work with the current branch of Xen (4.0/4.0.0) but I''m hitting a problem. We are currently using Xen 3.3.2 on a Sun Blade 600 chassis (with x6270 blades) this works great. But when we upgrade to Xen 4.0/4.0.1 we get the following message when

I have successfully passed through a video card, network card, USB mouse, and USB keyboard to a MS Vista guest. That works well. I am trying to add another PCI device, such as a audio card or PCI USB hub, but I am running into a strange problem. When I plug the PCI audio (or USB card) to the motherboard. It makes it so that the PCI video card is no longer an "assignable device" (xm

I've got a Digium PCI telephone card that I'm trying to use with an AsteriskNow guest, on a CentOS 5.2 host. I've tried setting up the pciback stuff, and think I've done it right, but the card does not show up in the guest. I'm obviously missing something, so any help (including ways to debug this!) would be greatly appreciated. Here's some more info: The guest is

Hi there, I have a question regarding PCI passthrough on the Citrix XenServer 5.6 (Xen 3.4.2). I already managed to get some soundcard passed through to a Windows guest. So I think my knowledge about that topic isn''t _that_ low. But I cannot seem to pass through a SATA/PATA controller to a Linux guest. I have some additional CD/DVD burner (PATA) attached to a SATA/PATA controller

Hi all! I''m hoping someone here might be able to help. I''m familiar with several UNIX''es, though farily new to Linux... I''m running RHEL 5.2. I''ve got the RHEL kernel headers installed, etc, and compiled xen-3.3. Once that was built, I rebuilt libvirt, etc, the kernel, and all the modules. The whole mess boots and runs fine... mostly. My hardware

A friend sent me an ipod to office to transfer music to it. It had a firewire cable and I have an Audigy soundcard with a firewire port. But when I connected the ipod to the firewire port, I got a lot of weird numbers and interrupt errors and the system crashed badly. Is there some problem with firewire support in the kernel? -- Roger D. Vargas http://dsgp.blogspot.com | Linux, programaci?n,

Hi, I am trying to set up a stream from my computer. I have set up Icecast, and it seems to be working. My OS is Redhat Enterprise Linux 3 and my soundcard is a SB Audigy SE working with Alsa. I have set up darkice as source client, and it seems to be working I get a really slow input stream from darkice. I think the stream must have double speed for a correct playback. This is the

I have a Creative Audigy SE configured whit the module CA106 The problem is to make the mixer work. It seems that Wine looks for PCM Playback Volume that is common to many cards, but not mine. My card channels for Playback are IEC958, IEC958 C, IEC958 F, IEC958 R, Analog C, Analog F, Analog R and Analog S. What am I missing? Thanks.

Hi, Wine is trying to render sounds through the Ati HD soundcard (which I don't use and disabled since then) while in the wine mixer my audigy is set up. How do I make wine to render sounds through my audigy? Reinstall wine? Thx in advance.
