Hi all,
 
I installed xen-3.3.1 and configured two DomU with 2.6.18.8-xen kernel. Now the DomU1 and DomU2 could work and the network is ok. But I used the filesystem image from jailtime, so the X-Window mode can't work. Thus, I tried two ways to make the GUI-mode work:
(1) yum install X-Window in Guest OS, and the GUI configuration Wizard shows up. When done with the configuration, the screen hangs up after reboot. I can only see the mouse pointer.
(2) rebuild filesystem image from the Domain 0, however the VNC screen goes back.
 
Below is my configuration for DomU:
 
kernel = "/boot/vmlinuz-2.6.18.8-xen"
ramdisk = "/boot/initrd-2.6.18.8.img"
memory = "256"
name = "domU2"
vif = ['mac=00:16:3e:38:75:47, ip=10.0.0.2']
dhcp = "off"
vfb = ['type=vnc, vncdisplay=10, vncpasswd=ok']
vnc=1
sdl=0
disk = ['tap:aio:/home/vm2/domu2.img,sda1,w']
root = "/dev/sda1 ro"
extra = "console=tty0"
Can someone tell me how to configure X-Window is DomU, and how to connect to DomU via VNC running in a remote machine. ( I don't configure VNC in DomU, just have VNC server run in the Domain 0). Please help me. Thanks.
 
Lei Ye
