Why would you expect them to take care of Xen pvops ?

Dear Pasi,

I have compiled ttm and nouveau successfully against the stock/vanilla 2.6.31-rc6 kernel WITHOUT Xen paravirt-ops Domain 0 patch.

So it seems that nouveau could not be compiled against Xen pv-ops dom 0 kernel and could not work with it.

Do I need to request nouveau and tungsten developers to make ttm and nouveau code Xen pvops dom 0 aware?
