Hello Konrad,
With the 2.6.18.8 kernel and 2.6.29.6 port of the xen kernel (on xen 3.4.1
hypervisor)
I had to use an additional guestdev= and reassign_resources to make things work.
Are these also ported/available on the 2.6.31.1/pv_ops kernel or not needed
anymore ?
Complete lines in grub dom0:
kernel /xen-3.4.1.gz dom0_mem=768M xencons=hvc
module /vmlinuz-2.6.29.6 root=/dev/mapper/serveerstertje-root ro
pci=nomsi
pciback.hide=(00:07.0)(06:01.0)(06:01.1)(06:01.2)(01:08.0)(01:08.1)(01:08.2)(01:0a.0)
guestdev=00:07.0,06:01.0,06:01.1,06:01.2,01:08.0,01:08.1,01:08.2,01:0a.0
reassign_resources swiotlb=256,force console=tty0
module /initrd.img-2.6.29.6
making this work for me by passing through 2 USB cards (one pci one pci-e) and
a integrated intel hda sound card) to domU's

Sander Eikelenboom
