I found an issue with the new firmware patch ... it is fixed in testing
now and I will push it on the next kernel update ...

If you want to test, the kernel here should work and has the new driver:

http://dev.centos.org/centos/6/xen-c6-RC1/

Note: that is a 3.10.18 kernel and is currently in testing, but should
work on the xen4centos6 repo

Thanks,
Johnny Hughes
