Subject: kvm network problem with Solaris 10u8 guest

Hi folks,

I am trying to run Solaris 10u8 as a guest in kvm (kernel
2.6.33.2). Problem: The virtual network devices don't work
with this Solaris version.

e1000 and pcnet work just by chance, as it seems. I can ping
the guest (even though some packets are lost), but ssh or other
TCP connections don't work.

rtl8139 and ne2k_pci are not even listed by "ifconfig -a" on
the guest.

Solaris 10u6 worked fine (using e1000).

Can anybody reproduce this problem?

Any helpful comment would be highly appreciated. Of course
I would be glad to help to track this down.

Harri
