ioports and irq parameter will not consider with xl, but xm does
Hello, I do a parport passthrough to a domU with the parameters ioport and irq. It works good with xend and the xm command tool. When I disable xend and use xl to start the domU, the parport is not available in the domU. I use xen-unstable 4.2 commit e605d60923bf128dab6bd567d9fde54d001b0c24 Was there a config change, or is it not ported to xl ? -- Best regards Dieter -- I do not get viruses because I do not use MS software.

This should be a fairly isolated feature to implement. I don''t suppose you feel like knocking up a patch, do you? Ian.

I don''t suppose > you feel like knocking up a patch, do you?the last patch I sent broke several stuff, so I think it is to complicated to me to write one. I''ve allready looked at it, but don''t have any idea to implement it. I''m sorry, but a don''t have the skills for this. -- Best regards Dieter -- I do not get viruses because I do not use MS software.
