Dear Xen users, developers and David Techer,

I have just downloaded, compiled, and installed Xen 4.2-unstable 
Changeset *_25099_* with Xen VGA Passthrough patches. Xen VGA 
Passthrough to Windows 8 Consumer Preview HVM domU is successful. Or I 
should say *PARTIALLY* successful. Why? Please see the screenshots below.

David Techer, could you read through my "Xen VGA Passthrough - Version 
1.5.pdf" to see if there are any mistakes, which might be causing the 
above-mentioned error in device manager for NVIDIA Geforce 8400 GS? I 
could not run 3D graphics benchmarks. I can only run 2D graphics benchmarks.

Thank you very much.

Yours sincerely,

Teo En Ming (Zhang Enming)

Teo

Here is a quick resume

- I am not able to see your  screenhosts (Error 403 Forbidden) but it doesn't matter

-There is no problem in my documentation. Moreover in http://www.davidgis.fr/blog/index.php?2011/12/07/860-xen-42unstable-patches-for-vga-pass-through in section "Tested domU"
  there is a table where there is a list of advised driver to use for Windows XP 32/64 or Linux 32/64

Then for 

Linux
====
Driver 275.28 or driver 275.43 works very well on my Linux 64 bits (Ubuntu Lucid 10.04.4)


Windows XP 

==========
You should be well-advised to install the last NVIDIA drivers for series 275.XX (275.33 or 275.50). It works!

Now If you want to install NVIDIA drivers >= 280 DON'T COMPLAIN ABOUT YOUR DEVICE MARK WITH A YELLOW MARK.


WINDOWS 8
==========
Two choices

- waiting to have a new NVIDIA driver that support your stuff


- Testing a old driver. I am not going to test any driver for you. I am not going to waste my time testing any old driver. 

   Big issue: testing an old driver may imply to reinstall Windows 8 from scratch. Not tested but I am pretty sure about that.

Dear David Techer,

Could you read through my documentation "Xen VGA Passthrough - Version

The problem with the device manager yellow exclamation mark for NVIDIA 
Geforce 8400 GS is that I couldn't run 3d graphics benchmarks. I can 
only run 2d graphics benchmarks.

Thank you very much.

Yours sincerely,

YELLOW EXCLAMATION MARK = NVIDIA DRIVER PROBLEM.

So read carefully my mail 

Thanks.

Now stop sending mail without reading the entire content of my mail.

Dear David Techer,

I always read my emails very carefully.

But in Xen VGA Passthrough to Windows 8 Consumer Preview, Device Manager 
reports that "Windows has stopped this device because it has reported 
problems. (Code 43)" for NVIDIA Geforce 8400 GS. Device Manager also 
reports that "This device isn't using any resources because it has a 
problem.". Yellow exclamation mark for NVIDIA Geforce 8400 GS Xen VGA 
Passthrough to Windows 8 Consumer Preview is NOT the issue. *_I believe 
the problem has to do with VGA Card MMIO BARs 1:1 matching, i.e. the 
file tools/firmware/hvmloader/acpi/dsdt.asl._*
_*
David Techer and Intel Corporation engineers Zhang Xiantao, Ren Yongjie 
and Han Weidong and Citrix Engineer Ian Campbell:*_

Could you help me to check through Sections 3, 4, and 6 of my "Xen VGA 
Passthrough - Version 1.6.pdf" documentation to see if there are any 
mistakes?

Please also see the following Xen VGA Passthrough to Windows 8 Consumer 
Preview screenshots for Device Manager.

(1) http://i42.tinypic.com/644g39.jpg
(2) http://www.freeimagehosting.net/x7wfp
(3) http://www.freeimagehosting.net/61poq

My Youtube video of Xen VGA Passthrough to Windows 8 Consumer Preview is 
here:

Youtube link: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kGH05ZoMk6o

Thank you very much for checking through my Xen VGA Passthrough 
documentation.

Yours sincerely,

Hi,
which CPU do you have? Intel E6300?
Did you notice that CPU doesn't support VT-d?

Dear Pavel Mateja,

My CPU is Intel Pentium Dual Core E6300 2.8 GHz which supports Intel 
Virtualization Technology, i.e. VT-x, not VT-d.

BUT, my Intel DQ45CB desktop motherboard supports Intel VT-d. The 
motherboard BIOS also has VT-d option.

Thank you very much.

Hi again,
I'm affraid you have to cross-reference

Dear Pavel Mateja,

I can confirm my Intel Pentium Dual Core E6300 2.8 GHz supports VT-x and 
my Intel DQ45CB desktop board and motherboard BIOS supports VT-d. Would 
you like to have a photo screenshot of the motherboard BIOS showing the 
VT-d option? This is concrete evidence showing that my hardware 
configuration supports VT-d. I can even post a video if you want it.

Thank you very much.

Also you can verify the VT-d IOMMU support from Xen dmesg:
