I''ve succesfully installed FC6 domU under RHEL5-beta2 dom0 with
virt-manager. I could open
a graphical vnc console from virt-manager with no probs and use domU''s
gnome desktop.
After few days of running the guest I''ve updated it with yum and been
using it mostly
via xm console. Now I tried to use the graphical console, but all
virt-manager was telling
me was: "The console is currently unavailable."
I searched the fc6 logs and saw these messages:
# tail /var/log/messages:

I''ve tried rebooting both dom0 and domU which has not helped. Is
anyoneone else having these problems? Any ideas how I could solve this
issue?
My guest''s config looks like this:
name = "fc6test"
memory = "500"
disk = [ ''phy:/dev/mapper/VolGroup00-LogVol02,xvda,w'',
''phy:/dev/mapper/VolGroup00-LogVol03,xvdb,w'']
vif = [ ''mac=00:16:3e:2e:d0:98, bridge=xenbr0'', ]
vnc=1
vncunused=1
sdl=0
uuid = "df923cb5-5528-6bd5-c129-2a44656e5584"
bootloader="/usr/bin/pygrub"
vcpus=1
on_reboot = ''restart''
on_crash = ''restart''

Peter

THere was a change in the virtual framebuffer protocol & config file around beta2 time, so perhaps there''s some slight incompatability you''re seeing. Also what version of ''xen'', libvirt, virt-manager have you got in Dom0, and what version of kernel-xen have you got in DomU ?
