Thanks a lot, I somehow missed that part, that pci needed to be on its
own. I always tried to put it into the vif line.

Yes, I'm seeing that right now :)

I don't see that, however I just have a single NIC in the computer.
With these settings, I get:
vif = ['bridge=mybridge']
pci=['00:04.0']
eth0 is attached to mybridge
eth1 is the physical nic (physical server has only single nic)
if I set
vif = ['','bridge=mybridge']
pci=['00:04.0']
eth0 is unused
eth1 is attached to bridge
eth2 is the physical nic
Thus it seems the pci device is set always behind the defined vifs.
Thanks for your help, it seems this solution is much easier to handle
than multiple bridges!
Cheers
Carsten
