Hi:

 

I have a problem with XEN and networking on a AMD Turion64 laptop.   The network interface is a Broadcom NetXtreme BCM5751M PCI express.

 

I have the problem on both RHEL5 and SUSE SLES 10 but I am troubleshooting it on RHEL.

 

When I run the standard kernel, the eth0 interface works absolutely fine with either DHCP or a static IP address.

 

When I boot the XEX kernel, eth0 fails to initialize and therefore does not end up with an IP address via DHCP.   I have tried giving it a static IP which works which allows eth0 to initialize, but I still can’t use the interface (pinging my router at 192.168.1.1 fails)

 

My XEN kernel is :2.6.18.8.1.4

XEN is 3.0.3-25.0.3

 

The driver being used for eth0 is TG3.

 

Any help would be appreciated.

 

Thanks:

 

Algie Seat
