Re: [Xen-users] Xen 3.0.4.1 AMD-V HVM

[Holger <Age_M@xxxxxx>]

Hi Tony,

first of all, thanks for your reply. The mainboard is a Gigabyte M61P-S3 
with a Nvidia nforce430 chipset (+ onboard GeForce6100 VGA).
Regarding the bios, it's already the latest version F4 :-/ I also 
already contacted Gigabytes tech-support, but have no reply yet.
Damn, that's totaly pointless when manufactures ignore given 
specifications. The only reason I switched to AM2 was/is HVM support.
Is there any way to override such a problem? Sometimes the kernel just 
ignores Bios-Options, so is there parameter to fix this, or do I have to 
wait until either Gigabyte releases a new bios-version with the wanted 
option available or until I buy a new mainboard!?
Greetz and thanks
