Re: [Xen-devel] Xen 3.1 and network card RTL-8169SC isn't working
That's interesting. Since you mention the peth0, I assume you have
execute the "xend start". So could you please clarify if the NIC works
or not before "xend start".
if eth0 does not work before "xend start", then that should be a
driver problem. you may want to try the latest linux kernel (e.g.
2.6.21) first. if native kernels works, then backport the r8139.c to
xen source.
if eth0 does work before "xend start", then you may want to check the
xen bridge config or xen netwokr script. Generally speaking, This case
should be rare, since the xen bridge and network script is not driver
specific.

I do it but without success. The module was compiled, the peth0 link is up,
but the NIC is without network communication (not configure an IP address
via dhcp protocol). If I set a static IP address, it continue without
network communication. r8139 module return many messages "link up" in dmesg
to peth0 alias.
