I''m learning xen on a machine with fc6.i386.
The CPU can do pae and vmx.
I have some problems:
1. virt-manager doesn''t start when I''m logged in as
root:
# virt-manager
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "/usr/share/virt-manager/virt-manager.py", line 56, in ?
import gtk
ImportError: No module named gtk
It works if I start /usr/bin/virt-manager instead of /usr/sbin/virt-manager.
2. xm doesn''t start:
# xm
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "/usr/sbin/xm", line 8, in ?
from xen.xm import main
ImportError: No module named xen.xm
3. If I create a guest and start an installation
(I''ve tried FC6 and W2K), the guest doesn''t come
up again after the "reboot".
For W2K I can fix this problem by creating a new
machine on the same partition and boot from the w2k
CD. When it says "press any key to boot from CD",
I don''t. Installing&updating W2K requires some
reboots, this leaves quite some ghost virtual
machines :-)
3. The two mouse cursors in the virtual console
don''t follow each other, this is quite annoying.

You need to boot the guest from the backend using "xm create <name>"> > 3.
