Hi Jim,

Nice reading, both of them..


Yes, i forgotten that xm/xend is depreceated.
Heard that a couple of times at several fosdems from Ian,
and when you mention "xm" at the xen-lists you are considered a relic
from a distant past....


How ever:
When you do a fresh instalation of the xen-stuff in 13.1, and you try to
create a VM like one is used to do in previous versions, i still got a
warning that i had to check because "xend was not running"


btw the message i got when trying to build it from yast was:
"Error Failed to start the vm, Details:
Error, device0 (VIF) could not be connected.
Hotplug scripts are not working"

The vif-thing, i wonder if that might have something todo with the
admin-unfriendly names, the network devices got since 13.1.
having said that, bridge br0 is up-and-working and eth en!@#$%^ device
is attached to it...
