I seem to be going backwards with the xen networking and FC4 
(bridge/vlan/bonding). I don't as yet know what my problem is, and I can't 
get vif0.0 and veth0 operating reliably (I have it working well on one 
machine with code from the 22nd Oct, but not on others - newer code doesn't 
seem to help). I have noticed that on machines where I am having good 
success, that there is a "Dynamic-irq  blkif-backend" entry in 
/proc/interrupts. ICMP pings work reliabily, but other traffic seems to hit 
the bit bucket.
I don't understand how hotplug would work on FC4, as FC4 uses udev (sysctl 
kernel.hotplug -> "kernel.hotplug = /sbin/udevsend", and udevd is running), 
but there is a limitation that xen only uses udev for udev 059 and greater 
('check_hotplug' script); but FC4 reports `udev- V` -> 058. How are other 
people getting this to work on FC4? Why does the check_hotplug script 
require udev >= 059?
Greg.
