(This is a mass-update to all current FC6 kernel bugs in NEW state) Hello, I'm reviewing this bug list as part of the kernel bug triage project, an attempt to isolate current bugs in the Fedora kernel. http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/KernelBugTriage I am CC'ing myself to this bug, however this version of Fedora is no longer maintained. Please attempt to reproduce this bug with a current version of Fedora (presently Fedora 8). If the bug no longer exists, please close the bug or I'll do so in a few days if there is no further information lodged. Thanks for using Fedora! Closing as NOTABUG. I got confused by eth0 no longer being the physical interface in DOM0. So the correct thing to do is to run "ethtool peth0" which works fine. If anyone is interested, Bug 209996 is about NetworkManager testing the wrong interface in DOM0 |

When I boot the machine with the Xen kernel ethtool will only report link status when ran in Dom0.
