Everything works with the native linux kernel, but under

Extracted from the below it seems that eth0 and eth1 do not
show up in /proc/interrupts but do show up in the boot
output. I'm able to configure the interfaces but they never
send out a packet, let alone recieve anything. In the borked
an the working system one NIC chipset is similar. We've never
had problems with the NIC's before. XenLinux runs smooth on
other hosts.
It sounds like an irq routing issue. Hopefully this will be fixed in a
few weeks time with 2.1 when this code gets moved back to domain 0.
Would be great!
In the meantime, it might be interesting to see what a native 2.4.27
kernel does on this machine as Xen's current code is closer to this than
2.6.
Ok, I'll try to give you an update on this later.
Has the motherboard got an IOAPIC?
Concluding from the following XEN output I'd say that it does:
(XEN) Enabling APIC mode: Flat. Using 1 I/O APICs
...
(XEN) ENABLING IO-APIC IRQs
(XEN) Setting 2 in the phys_id_present_map
(XEN) ...changing IO-APIC physical APIC ID to 2 ... ok.
(XEN) init IO_APIC IRQs
(XEN) ..TIMER: vector=0x41 pin1=2 pin2=0
Thanks for the feedback!
