Re: [Xen-users] 2.6.30.1 dom0 Xen patches
This is my desktop PC and i'm trying to run linux, solaris, and xp
together. It's horribly slow with kvm so I thought I'd try xen. I'm
running 64bit ubuntu 9.04.
I eventually got the rebased suse 2.6.29.6 to boot. Not sure why the
2.6.30.1 won't work as I'm using the same kernel config.
However with 2.6.29.6 I still couldn't get my X server to start. I
just know you're going to tell me you can't help much with that... as
the video I'm using is a nvidia geforce 7900... and I can't bring
myself to use the nv driver either :P
I have seen other people that have gotten earlier kernel/xen/nvidia
drivers to work together.
http://www.nvnews.net/vbulletin/showthread.php?t=60125 and
http://www.nvnews.net/vbulletin/showthread.php?t=122900
I'll keep trying!
