Re: [Xen-users] Unknown PCI device in HVM Windows XP
> i''ve succesfully installed windows, but i have one unknown PCI device. > Does anybody know, would it could be on my Xen 3.0.4?Probably it''s the Xen Platform Device, which can be used by HVM guests (with appropriate drivers) to access paravirtualised Xen features in order to implement optimised virtual devices. The Xen-aware Windows drivers in the XenEnterprise product line uses this device. The paravirt drivers for HVM Linux in the Xen repository use this device too. Cheers, Mark -- Dave: Just a question.

I assume, that the drivers for HVM Windows are only for Xen Enterprise or buying the Novell Driver Pack, right? cu denny -- Stoppt den Überwachungswahn - Stoppt den Schäuble Katalog: http://www.nopsis.de _______________________________________________ Xen-users mailing list Xen-users@lists.xensource.com http://lists.xensource.com/xen-users

Unless someone Linux Novell (or maybe Redhat) wants to develop some Windows drivers and release them for free, that is. VirtualIron may also have paravirt drivers, but again you can probably only use them if you use their product! Cheers, Mark -- Dave: Just a question. What use is a unicyle with no seat?
