Disallowing shared IRQs means disallowing PCI devices in general, so now you are back to ISA only devices, which it sounds like were the only things already allowed by vm86 or whatever it was for passing through. MSI would be good, but how long until all devices support that? Certainly does appear to have potential though for allowing more interesting virtual machines. -- Len Sorensen ------------------------------------------------------------------------- This SF.net email is sponsored by DB2 Express Download DB2 Express C - the FREE version of DB2 express and take control of your XML.
