Hi,

thanks for the reply. I've found this on that matter:
http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.comp.emulators.kvm.devel/26785/focus=3D26971
(device-assignment code doesn't update the cards BAR). Is that the
problem, you're talking about? Or is there something else that's still
missing? So I know what to look for in the changelogs.

Cheers,
harry

PS: I've applied Leendert's patch, but it didn't help
