No worries... this isn't production, so who cares! :)

Okay, I'll take it out, but I had put it in originally because it wasn't
working...

pciback.hide only works if you have pciback built static into the kernel. I
don't. I have it built as a module. Because of this, you have to make it
preload via the initrd, and it's config gets specified in /etc/modprobe.conf.
I might try building it in static, though I don't really like that option... :)
>I think you are getting this error because you passed iommu=1
It was giving that error before I added iommu=1. I added it because of this
error in the first place, as I had read that it was required in order to handle
PCI-passthrough.
>You can't pass to a HVM domain without VT-d. You can only pass to a PV guest.
First, I want to thank you for responding, as I appreciate your assistance.
But, are you 100% sure of that? I've never seen that written so
black-and-white in any of the Xen documentation... From what I could cull from
the docs and mail lists, it might not work correctly if the guest doesn't know
how to talk to Xen, the hvm qemu-dm ought to at least recognize it's got some
extra PCI card...

Indeed! Many thanks! Take care!
