Re: [Xen-devel] PVOPS dom0 requires nomodeset to boot but video requires modesetting driver



Konrad,

Thanks. Domain 0 is one of Jeremy's pvops kernels, the latest 2.6.32.25, as far 
as I can tell, downloaded as a snapshot. The tarball called itself xen-51f9f52, 
but I don't know if that is a unique id. I am trying to bring this up on Fedora 
14. X forwarding works just fine. I have not set up the networking properly on 
this box, so that will not look right, but does not matter.

Attached are the outputs from the serial console, dmesg, lspci, and X logs for 
bare metal and Xen boots of the dom0 kernel:

Attachment: dumps.tgz
Description: Binary data


Sincerely,

John
