Re: [Xen-users] Newbie Questions

Hi Georg,

My 32-bit Xen machine would constantly complain if I'd boot a domU without disabling /lib/tls first.

However, booting domUs on my AMD64/x86_64 machine, it didn't complain. In fact, on my dual opteron machine, all my domU's have NPTL on and I don't really notice a significant speed penalty. Even on my 32-bit machine I have one domU that has NTPL on (to run Zimbra) and it works fine. It doesn't cause any trouble.

As for #3, I'm not sure if I understand the problem.

Hello


I yesterday installed xen 3.0.2 on a Gentoo Linux box (x86_64/intel)
for my first time.
Now I've some questions and cannot find any answers.

#1 I've read about issues with NPTL on glibc and that one should get a
non-nptl glibc, is this still true?
I'd like to continue to use glibc 2.4 which is only nptl compatible.

#2 I also read about tls causing trouble, is this also still fact?

#3 My big problem at the moment is that I run a dom0 kernel and this
works but after starting xend I cannot use my keyboard,
if Im under X11 I can use X - so its a console problem or sth like
that - any hint on this?

thanks
