Hi,

I haven't created any new rpm packages. The latest are built for
rhel6/centos6 (and based on kernel 2.6.32 - which is the version freeze
in rhel6). They can be found here:

Unless you plan to experiment with my 3.8 patch (which I haven't tested
yet, but expect not to work), you should use a 2.6.32 linux (probably
centos6) in order to have a working switch.ko module.

If you're only focusing on the libvirt integration and use bridge+8021q
as the backend for testing, you can use whatever linux you like best.
The userspace part should compile without problems on most of the newer
distros.

Cheers,

Radu
