Re: [Xen-users] Problem with Broadcom Corporation NetXtreme II BCM5708 bnx2

Hi,

I ran into trouble with this NICs a few times, too.
Be sure you have a new driver version.
I don't know which version Xen 3.0.3 RPM delivers. Couldy you tell me?

And perhaps you should give James Harpers Paradrivers a chance.

Cheers,
Alex
