Re: [Xen-users] Realtek RTL8111B

Hello Dirk,

I've just seen, that there are only prebuilt binaries. So i think you
also have only binaries. I don't know, if the sources are within this
packets. If not, you will have to download the sources, because the
realtek driver needs them (especially the linux sources inside).
