Xen users - Jul 2009 - Gigabyte GA-EX58-UD4P IOMMU VT-d support

Hi all,

I seems that this motherboard support VT-d support
(http://communities.vmware.com/thread/204512
), I''m currently wanting to buy one to install a multi purpose  
Computer (work / media ) in my home using Xen

(I also would like to play with Xen to test IOMMU for other businness)

Do you know if this motherboard has been already tested by  the Xen  
community. If not, I will let you know ASAP since i will not buy the  
Asus P6T since the bios fix is still not released ...

Hi All again,

I had apply the patch suggested from an old mail ("nomsi option")

I''m coming to what I was afraid :

I have the message :

(XEN) I/O virtualisation disabled

Any idea how i can debug this to see if it''s related to DMAR not  
detected because of a BIOS issue ?

Does this DMAR initialisation could not be made by generic code  
outside the bios ?

Regards
