 What do you mean by domU has control over the interface?

I "hide" the interface from dom0 with pciback.hide=(xx:xx.x) in grub and present it to domU with pci = [ 'xx:xx.x' ]. So the domU has control of the real pci device.



I tried that already, but when I included pciback.hide=(xx:xx.x) in grub the card was still present. So, I then unbound it from /sys/...
I included pci =[..... and started domU. It was still the same.

At this moment I don't know what to do, but I will try to reinstall everything and try one more time with Debian Etch xen binary packages.

At this moment I am using Debian Lenny with binary xen from XenSource.

I am just wondering why the hiding with pciback.hide does not work for me?

So, I did reinstall everything to Debian Etch. I am running xen from debian packages. But I just cannot make the pppoe work.

Please help!!!

I did hide the pci device on the boot. I checked that the driver (e1000) is not loaded in Dom0. I included pci statement in DomU config file. I checked that the devide was recognised and driver was loaded in DomU.

I have it all on HP DL145 G2 server. There is AMD dual core processor, 2GB ram, 2x Broadcom network card and I added Intel PCI card in the raiser board (PCI-X).

pppoeconf will discover pppoe on eth2 (intel 1G card) but when it tries to establish the connection. it fails with:

   Nov 18 09:44:40 alsfw01 pppd[1723]: Plugin rp-pppoe.so loaded.
   Nov 18 09:44:40 alsfw01 pppd[1723]: Linux kernel does not support
   PPPoE -- are you running 2.4.x?

Could anyone help me to troubleshoot it.
