[Xen-devel] Xen 3.0.1 plans? xen-3.0-testing status?
Hi list! What are the plans for xen 3.0.1 release? Is support for 2.6.14 (or even better, 2.6.15) going to be added? What''s the state of xen-3.0-testing? Is it working OK for you? Better than 3.0.0 ? Please post your comments! -- Pasi Kärkkäinen ^ . .

Please post your comments!3.0-testing has a number of bug fixes in it over 3.0.0 -- it should definitely be used in preference to 3.0.0. It''s effectively a 3.0.0.x series.> What are the plans for xen 3.0.1 release?

If you want the very latest bleeding edge 2.6.15-rc7, look at xenbits.xensource.com/ext/linux-2.6-merge.hg Ian _______________________________________________ Xen-devel mailing list Xen-devel@lists.xensource.com http://lists.xensource.com/xen-devel

But we wouldn''t have it any other way. Maybe that memory leak which crashes my dom0 has been fixed... I''ll have to give -testing a go.

I know a patch I received from Ian that fixes issues with 3ware cards is not even on -unstable, I had hoped it''d be in 3.0-testing by now. I''m half-considering just running -unstable util 3.0.2/3 so I get the latest fixes :) _______________________________________________ Xen-devel mailing list Xen-devel@lists.xensource.com http://lists.xensource.com/xen-devel
