Hey there Michael, Thanks for the response! As far as I can tell, these drivers are not in the kernel, and will not be in the near future. These drivers are part of the xen hg repository. I expect that I'll need to use DKMS in order to get the drivers built. I've written up a HOWTO for doing it manually: http://wp.colliertech.org/cj/?p=653 Cheers, C.J.
