Hi Everyone, recently i installed Vista professional on our xen machine. The installation ran fine however the networking for the machine would not work. we were able to install network drivers for the machine and in tcpdump we could see the arp requestes being sent and recieved from the vista instance but otherwise could get no other networking working on the machine. has anyone else come up with this problem? I have already tried using the suggestions that were in the phaq article about the different driver emulation. Neither of them worked. there is nothing really special about the install either. I hope you guys can help kind regards, milo _______________________________________________ Xen-users mailing list Xen-users@lists.xensource.com http://lists.xensource.com/xen-users

The problem was solved by changing emulated rtl8139 to ne2000. Take a look at this post for example: http://phaq.phunsites.net/2007/05/21/vista-on-xen-using-ne2000-in-favor-to-rtl8139/ http://xgu.ru/wiki/Xen/vista (in russian, but there are useful screenshots and config files) -- WBR, i.m.chubin _______________________________________________ Xen-users mailing list Xen-users@lists.xensource.com http://lists.xensource.com/xen-users

How do u do that?? :-)The Aero-stuff is not mandatory and HVM doesnt emulate the needed 3d-parts.
