Hi Folks,

hope that helps a bit.

Tried 3.4.2, gentoo xen-sources-2.6.31-r10, to ran into the heavy discussed 
hotplug script bug.

That's (in my case) not a udev or driver problem, the problem is iptables.
It hangs in frob_iptable() (vif-common.sh), the forward state rule never 
returns.

I've simply commented out the handle_iptable call in vif-bridge, don't need 
that because I have shorewall running.


Confirmed with:

xen-3.4.2
iptables-1.4.3.2
gentoo xen-sources-2.6.31-r10
gentoo xen-sources-2.6.29-r4
udev-146-r1

nothing more checked.

Christian
