If you have done all that already and it is still not working you should continue with anthonys suggestion and send what lspci shows you. If you want to be complete use lspci -vvvx And maybe it is worth to add debug to the kernel command line of the guest and attach a full dmesg to the same response too, just in case someone might want to look at driver messages. -- Grüsse / regards, Christian Ehrhardt IBM Linux Technology Center, Open Virtualization - This SF.net email is sponsored by the 2008 JavaOne(SM) Conference Don't miss this year's exciting event.
