[Xen-devel] x86_64 - Networking disabled when starting xend

[David F Barrera <dfbp@xxxxxxxxxx>]

When starting xend on an x86_64 machine (IBM HS20 Blade EMT64) with SLES
9, networking is completely disabled.  I don't see any trace data or
error messages coming out, simply when I type in 'xend start' on a
remote login, the communication stops. On the serial console, I don't
see any error or Oops,either. I first saw this problem today, July
14th. 

** Note: the problem is NOT happening on an identical machine that has
FC4.

vif0.0    Link encap:Ethernet  HWaddr FE:FF:FF:FF:FF:FF  (garbage after

The network card is a tg3, and I believe I saw some emails exchanged
regarding some issues with veth0 and tg3
