I started some work on making tpr patching work for SMP but it's far from usable (XP crashes after a few minutes of uptime, sometimes more, sometimes less). So something else needs to be done, I'm not sure what though. I probably need to learn how to read windows crash dumps and figure out why it blows up. - This SF.net email is sponsored by: Microsoft Defy all challenges.

I suggested 16 because that's what the called to alloc_disk in the virtio block driver is using. I'm not sure why lilo dislikes that value. Now I can boot it correctly. Thank you very much again.

Re: [kvm-devel] [PATCH] Move common VGAState attributes to VGA_STATE_COMMON
On Fri, Feb 22, 2008 at 11:12:42AM +0100, Soren Hansen wrote: vmware_vga.c uses functions in vga.c to do some things. They need to agree on which parts of their state struct is common and which aren't, otherwise they'll overwrite parts of each other's state. This patch makes it so. I tried this an hour or so ago (whenever you last mentioned this). Actually I used that patch from: http://people.ubuntu.com/~soren/0001-Move-common-VGAState-attributes-to-VGA_STATE_COMMON.patch This does not suffice to get X working under linux for me, though it did get a bit further in that the vga window did resize (but then nothing). - This SF.net email is sponsored by: Microsoft Defy all challenges.
