Has anyone successfully gotten X to work inside a domU (by working directly with a graphics card, not with vnc or equivalent)? Is this possible?

I have a computer with two graphics cards (both PCI Express). My dom0 uses the primary card (PCI 05:00.0; the card used at boot by the BIOS); I delegated the second card (PCI 04:00.0) to a domU. I can run X in the dom0, but in the domU, the following happens:


$ X -novtswitch -sharevts vt0
...
(==) Using config file: "/etc/X11/xorg.conf"
(EE) end of block range 0x1fff < begin 0xbaee0000
PCI: Enabling device 0000:04:00.0 (0000 -> 0002)
ACPI: PCI Interrupt 0000:04:00.0[A] -> GSI 16 (level, low) -> IRQ 16

Fatal server error:
xf86MapVidMem: Could not map framebuffer (0x000a0000,0x200000) (Bad address)

ACPI: PCI interrupt for device 0000:04:00.0 disabled


Interestingly, the device is "04:00.0" in dom0, but it shows up as "00:00.0" in this domU (in lspci).

Any thoughts?  Debugging suggestions? Pointers to instructions?

Thanks,
Adam
