[Xen-users] no network in domain 0

[Robin Atwood <robin@xxxxxxxxx>]

I am new to xen and trying to get the primary domain working properly before I 
create a new one. I am using the Gentoo unstable sources (2.6.16-rc5) and xen 
3.0.1 and the kernel boots Ok and eth0 is activated. At this point the 
network is active and I can ping. Then I shutdown net.eth0 and start xend. 
This restarts net.eth0 and does some other stuff. Now every thing looks 
normal (ifconfig, netstat) but I cannot ping anything. I have seen some other 
posts like this but I am not getting any "WATCHDOG" messages. I have also 
seen some advice about configuring APIC in the kernel but I have a P4 HT 
running as SMP, so this option is not available. Any ideas?

Also, usually I select VESA for the console with VGA=792. With xen this seems 
to be ignored and I get "elephant font" which is not very convenient! Any 
tricks available here?

TIA
-Robin.
