Description mnaud mnaud 2011-03-29 20:28:56 CEST 
can't use virtio driver for network card under qemu-kvm, the mageia guest hosts does not recognise the NIC.

(previous version 2.6.38.1 works partially, sometimes NIC is renamed from eth0 to ethxx at boot time without real explication)

previous versions seem to work correctly (config-2.6.37.3-desktop-1.mga)
