Could be a good solution, at least for experimental.
Unfortunately it doesn't seem to solve the problem of compiling against kernels with XEN enabled which seems to be all the i386 kernels (although not the amd64 kernels) as of 2.6.25 in Debian. This seems a bit odd though since there have been patches to supposedly make it work for a while but nothing official. With the current kernel state, the kernel team seems to have decided that a few Xen users interrests are more important than any kernel module users on i386, while amd64 users don't need xen and can continue using kernel modules. Seems rather inconsistent. -- Len Sorensen -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]
