Re: [Xen-users] "netdev watchdog" error and non-working sis900 networkcard - solution



Hi,

when installing xen 3.0 I had trouble to get networking going - it worked perfectly on the same machinwith the non-xen kKernel. But with the xen Kernel (self-compiled, to get support for my sis900 network
chipset) ran, I got
lots of error messages with something like "netdev watchdog..." in it, followed by my network card not working on the xen dom0 privileged system.

I also tried the demo cd, same thing.

The troubles went away when adding kernel options "noapic acpi=off" to the modules grub line.

Any chance you could post the diff between the output of a native kernel
boot vs a xen one?
I have 3 dmesg outputs now - one from an unchanged Debian 2.6.8 Kernel without xen, one from a xen Kernel with "acpi=off", where networking works after boot, and one without acpi=off, with broken networking.

Which diffs between which of these files do you want, or should I send you the whole files?

Henning
