[opensuse] VT workstation for SuSE10.1/Xen
I'm wondering if the new Dell Precision 490 and 690 workstations can be verified or expected as VT enabled and ready to be applied for SuSE10.1/Xen and other unmodified Linux and Windows guests? >From the system specs: * 1-2 Dual-Core Intel Xeon 5000 series 64-bit processors * Intel 5000X chipset * Windows XP/Vista or Redhat EWS4 Linux According to my information from a Dell sail representative, the new Dell Precision 490 and 690 workstations should be VT enabled. However, looking on the Xen Wiki Intel VT page it contains non of the above hardware (maybe not updated?) http://wiki.xensource.com/xenwiki/IntelVT?highlight=(vt) http://www.dell.com/content/products/productdetails.aspx/precn_490?c=us&cs=04&l=en&s=bsd&~section=specs#tabtop Rgds, Terje J.

The working CPUs are listed on the following page: http://wiki.xensource.com/xenwiki/HVM_Compatible_Processors AFAIK it's not sure if VT has to be supported by the BIOS. It is expected to work if the CPU supports VT and the mainboard supports that CPU.
