Hi, I''ve inside my new server a Realtek 8111b and with XEN it displays in the Console: "ADDRCONF(NETDEV_UP) eth0: Link down". If I boot it via the normal Debian Kernel via Aptitude the Interface comes up and a network connection is working. Over XEN the Interface is still dead and not responding. The only thing is that I can see "ADDRCONF(NETDEV_UP) eth0: link down". I''ve made the "make world", "make install", "depmod 2.6.18-8-xen". So I did the usual stuff, which I''ve done for the other 3.2.x installations as well, but without any success. What could might be the reason for this. Thanks. Cheers, Maik _______________________________________________ Xen-users mailing list Xen-users@lists.xensource.com http://lists.xensource.com/xen-users

Hi, not 100% sure, but isn''t the 8111b the transceiver of an 8168B, for which you have to compile your own driver r8168.ko from source supplied at Realtek? At least I had to do so. r8169.ko which is supplied will not work.

Re: AW: [Xen-users] XEN 3.4 - Problems with eth0 (link down)
Hi, I think the card which I''ve build in, is not well implemented in the patched r8169.c module. So the new revisions of this card needs to be updated in this particular file. Has sombody expirience with that?
