Hi, I noticed that MTRR support isn''t there at all in Xen, and that the X server on my Xen test system needs it ;) I''m wondering if there are fundamental reasons why MTRR support isn''t enabled in Xen, and what I could do to make it happen. Any special things that need to be kept in mind ? -- "Debugging is twice as hard as writing the code in the first place.

If it works, we can add it to the default xen0 config.

Have you tried the "NoMTRR" option in the xorg.conf? (this is not a proper fix) Mark ---------------------------------- "Boing!
