Description: Non-free Linux 2.6.24 modules on Xen
This package provides restricted modules for Linux version 2.6.24 on
Xen dom0 and domU.
Currently the following modules are included:

These modules are "restricted" because they are not available under a

(although I'm using my local resp, I've checked other mirrors too, in case it had been updated since my last sync)
