> Would a decchip tulip card be a good choice for xen? Digital Equipment > Corporation DECchip 21140 [FasterNet] (rev 22). Tulip is a good NIC design, and it can do full bus-mastering DMA. It's not as well tested on Xen as some others, but should work just fine. For reference, the NICs that we use are Broadcom tg3, Intel e1000, and 3com 3c905. There are suspected issues with the tg3 driver though (the same issues exist on native Linux also - the driver just isn't fully mature yet). > I also have a server class Intel ether card (not certain of the version, > have to drop it in a system) that I can try on the server.

The new IO model will be unveiled in a short while. At that point we hope that all Linux network and block-device drivers will work with no modifications required.
