Xen users - Jul 2005 - X on DomU

Hi All,

Is it possible to run X on a Dom U and access it via vncviewer?

If possible let me know whether i need to configure display card for 
domU and how?

Thanks
Sadique

You don''t need a video card to run the vncserver. Just install the 
vncserver package, start the server, and connect.

Yes. I''ve done this with freenx.  

I was using it as my primary desktop for a week this way, but for the
last few weeks I''ve been using a dedicated machine instead.  I was
having performance problems due the xen system only being UP. I
haven''t had time to test it on a SMP machine.

I think it you had a machine with just xen0, and one xenU it might
work fine. 3.0 might also improve performace on UP machines for this
config.
