Hi,

I have also virtualized Windows XP under Xen 3.4.1 RC8 Dom 0 Kernel 2.6.30 
RC6 on OpenSUSE 11.1 Linux 32-bit Host.

Please see screenshots here:

Can I change the emulated display adapter driver in Windows XP HVM guest 
under Xen to a better one so that I can play games?

Thank you!!!

RC8 Dom 0 Kernel 2.6.30 RC6 on OpenSUSE 11.1 Linux 32-bit host operating

system.

Well for simple streaming IO tests you can use dd, it supports multiple

block sizes, O_DIRECT etc.



If you need multithreaded/multiprocess tests, or filesystem IO tests, then

you need something more sophisticated.. bonnie++, ltp disktest, fio, iozone

etc. Google is your friend.
