[David TECHER <davidtecher@xxxxxxxx>]

Javier,

1. Please be informed that the patched are available at http://www.davidgis.fr/download/gfx_patch.tar.bz2

wget -q http://www.davidgis.fr/download/gfx_patch.tar.bz2
tar xvjf gfx_patch.tar.bz2
for file in $(ls gfx_patch/*.patch);do patch -p0 < ../$file;done

2. Concerning your question, in xen-4.2.unstable one of the function was been placed in a new file.

   That's the reason why you will find the patch 'tools/firmware/hvmloader/pci.c'

   I've did it because the branch 4.2 unstable placed the function in the file pci.c

   I can not tell you, you need to have a look (I am at work while I am writting this mail )

3. The patchs shoud work for revision 23799 on xen 4.2 unstable

    hg clone -r 23799 http://xenbits.xensource.com/hg/staging/xen-unstable.hg/

4. GTX 460: be informed that it will be a great pleasure to  know that you succeed in hacking  your GTX 460.

    I've got a 'EVGA GTX 460 SE' and it doesn't work. I think because EVGA overclocks

    the card. Perhaps I need to underclock the card using nibitor. I do not know. I've tryed yet.

  

  When I've tried to start my domU with GTX 460 the domU and dom0 crash.

   So let me know if you succeed :)

 

  As far as I'am concern, you need to have a GTX 460 not super overclocked.

P.S:  I've made a complete tutorial - but for French users only - available on my blog

Congratulations!  these are nice news ^^, I have two questions, first one for
David:
Did u just adapt my patches or did you add some new things to them? (By the
way thank you for adapt them again, and for explain the dsdt modifications I
have realised that I made a mistake, maybe now I can make it work for my GTX
460).
The second one is for Komkom, would you mind to post a link for the
changeset of xen 4.2 about the date of my patches? (the one you said you
have tried before) I just want to know if my original pacthes are working
too.

Well, I'll work on this at the end of the month so I'll post here if this
work also for my graphic card (GTX 460) and if this is fine I will adapt the
patch for the secondary card to make you happier XD or maybe David is going
to do this faster than me because Im bussy until end of this month.

Best regards
Javier Manzano
