Yes, the safest way to be sure is probably to replace the if() statement in vmx_set_segment_register() that tests HVM_PARAM_VM86_TSS with if(0). That is the only place in Xen that checks HVM_PARAM_VM86_TSS. Then you can re-build/install Xen and be sure that vm86 accel must be disabled. -- Keir On 22/04/2009 14:52, "Tom Rotenberg" <tom.rotenberg@xxxxxxxxx> wrote: > So, do u suggest, that i will set HVM_PARAM_VM86_TSS to 0, and re-check it? > > 2009/4/22 Tim Deegan <Tim.Deegan@xxxxxxxxxx> >> At 14:34 +0100 on 22 Apr (1240410866), Keir Fraser wrote: >>> It could be an issue with the vm86 acceleration, possibly.
