[Xen-users] Install Error when selecting Graphics Support
Hello I get the following error: I am trying to install on Fedora Core 6. I''ve tried both virt-install and virt-manager. It seems to happen when under virt-install I select "graphics support". If I select no for graphics support it works ok. Is it something to do with how the video is set up on that machine? virDomainCreateLinux() failed POST operation failed: (xend.err "Error creating domain: invalid device (vkbd, [''vkbd''])") Thanks, Cam _______________________________________________ Xen-users mailing list Xen-users@lists.xensource.com http://lists.xensource.com/xen-users

Make sure you have latest xen RPMs installed from fedora updates YUM repo and also explicitly restart the xend initscript (or reboot) Regards, Dan. -- |=- Red Hat, Engineering, Emerging Technologies, Boston. +1 978 392 2496 -=| |=- Perl modules: http://search.cpan.org/~danberr/ -=| |=- Projects: http://freshmeat.net/~danielpb/ -=| |=- GnuPG: 7D3B9505 F3C9 553F A1DA 4AC2 5648 23C1 B3DF F742 7D3B 9505 -=| _______________________________________________ Xen-users mailing list Xen-users@lists.xensource.com http://lists.xensource.com/xen-users
