Hi, I want to build from source code the GPLPV drivers. However, the link at http://wiki.xensource.com/xenwiki/XenWindowsGplPv/Building is broken. So is there any instructions elsewhere, or could anybody fix the above link? Thanks, Jun _______________________________________________ Xen-devel mailing list Xen-devel@lists.xensource.com http://lists.xensource.com/xen-devel

Hope that helps. Updates to the wiki to correct the situation are also much appreciated.

So it is nice to put the building instructions and some guides in the code.

Then use hg to get the source code and type ''build''. If you get it working, please feel free to add content to the Building page on the Wiki. Let me know if you run into problems.

You''ll find BUILDING.txt in the distributed binaries, and apart from an outdated mention of visual studio, it should be correct.
