RE: [Xen-users] GPL drivers

["Dustin Henning" <Dustin.Henning@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

James,
        Microsoft has always called this amd64 where the *nix communitp more
aptly calls it x86_64.  I don't know why Microsoft chose amd64 (as if Intel
wouldn't use the same technology), but seeing as how 64 bit Windows versions
are called amd64 versions (at least Windows XP was), you might cause as much
or more confusion to non-*nix users by calling it x86_64 instead.  Just a
thought,
        Dustin

You need gplpv_fre_wlh_amd64_0.10.0.130.msi - x86=32 bits, amd64=64
bits. You're the second person to make that mistake... I'll look at
changing the filenames. Currently they are automatically generated by
the Windows DDK utilities, but maybe it's not so hard to change it.
