Hi,
I have two graphics cards in that machine, and want to hand one of
them over to a domu, and I am basically at the point that this mail
also describes:
http://lists.xensource.com/archives/html/xen-users/2006-04/msg00793.html

When trying to start x, i get

"xf86OpenConsole: Cannot open /dev/tty0 (No such file or directory)"

I know, using pci graphics in hvm domains defintely doesn't work - for
paravitual domains some things I read sound like it should be
possible, but I found no howto or something, and no success story but
some that are quite old, probably xen 2. So I am not even sure if it's
supposed to work.

Henning
