Description Michael Wyraz 2009-02-19 16:54:33 UTC
Then package xen-source is outdated. The latest is 2.6.18. As the result more and more users needs to unmask the hard masked 2.6.21 (which is outdated as well) or to use third party ebuilds. Many new hardware will not work with the old 2.6.18 kernel.

Please have a look at http://code.google.com/p/gentoo-xen-kernel/downloads/list where is a working (at least for me) xen-sources-2.6.27.


Reproducible: Always
