x86_64 Dom0 USB support (was [Xen-devel] Xen on ES7000 x86_64 take 2)
I meant to post this sooner but it skipped my mind. I solved the USB keyboard issue on the ES7000 x86_64 box. The Dom0 kernel by default did not have any host side USB drivers compiled in. Once I fixed this the keyboard worked. I noticed that on x86_32 Dom0 kernel, the host side USB drivers are enabled by default and on x86_64 Dom0 they are not. Is there a reason for this or should I be submitting a patch which enables this support?

I see no reason why it wouldn''t be. I would submit a patch to the config so that it is. Nobody has had a need till now..so it was just missed.
