I do not understad, what does it mean? that I shoud not be getting that
error and should be able to pass-throught the decive to my DomU?
Reading this -  http://wiki.xensource.com/xenwiki/VTdHowTo, also added
iommy=1 to grub, but no luck, still do not get
why xm pci-list-assignable-devices show nothing, at least should show
01:05.0, in xen pci backend mode also used Virtual PCI just to test,
same behavior.


I'm using
2.6.31.13 #7 SMP Mon Jul 12 15:33:25 ART 2010 x86_64 AMD Athlon(tm) II
X4 630 Processor AuthenticAMD GNU/Linux

All xen options compiled embeded, not modules/initramfs used.
