Re[4]: [Xen-devel] [xen 3.5-unstable] passthrough of pci USB card fails

Thanks, the "reassign_resources" made the domU boot without complaining.

Seems I was misguided by 
http://article.gmane.org/gmane.comp.emulators.xen.devel/57212
in that reassing_resources was deprecated.

Hope it works now ! :-)

Thx many many times !
