Fedora xen - Nov 2006 - RE: No mouse and KB activity in FC5 guest OS in FC6 xen host setup

I appreciate if somebody has any ideas/tips on this...

 

      Here is the configuration of unmodified guest FC5 in FC6 Xen host.

I have a iMac running FC6 Xen in x86 mode and FC5 as unmodified guest

I get a graphics for unmodified guest which allows me login. But then no
mouse and keyboard is active after logging me into FC5 unmodified guest.

 

What is wrong ? I also tried adding nographic=1 options and usb=1 and
sdl=1.

I always created it again. But absolutely no mouse/KB activity.

 

Any tip/trick is greatly appreciated as I am not making forward
progress..

sdl = 1 # use SDL for graphics

pae=1

nographic = 0 # don''t use graphics

serial=''pty'' # enable serial console
