Hi,

I am running Xen on Debian Lenny. I am having a very strange issue regarding VNC.

I am able to connect to VNC just fine -- but as the paravirtualized machine boots, it stops at "lo: Disabled Privacy Extensions", and appears to hang there. The console will accept no keyboard input.

However...

The strange part is that "xm console" still works for this domu... when I log in, I see that the domu has booted just fine! Everything works, including networking. I need vnc to work on this this domu. (btw- vnc works flawlessly with an hvm openbsd domu on the same machine).

Here is a screenshot of what I see:

Below is my cfg for this domu, and the output from my log file. Please note that the commented lines in my cfg are things I have to toggled to try and fix this -- none worked.

Thank you for your help.
