Re: [Xen-users] usb pass through + xen 4.0.1 + centos 5.5 + pvm



Hi Pasi,

So I would need the pvops kernel (2.6.32) on both dom0 and domU just to pass a USB port?

Seems like it would be easier to use KVM as passing a USB port seemed alot easier according to a quick google.

Hi,

Is there any definitive wether USB passthrough works on Xen 4.0.1 and
Centos 5.5 on a PVM really works or not?

Seems like by the many posts I've read, it doesn't.

Any one mind enlightening me.



For PV domUs you need to use pvusb.
pvusb requires *drivers* in both the dom0 kernel, and in the domU kernel!
(in addition to pvusb support in Xen).
