[Xen-users] SDL for HVM DomU stops working after Gentoo 2007.0 Dom0 upgrade
Hi folks, I''ve got a strange problem. I just upgraded from Gentoo 2006.0 to 2007.0 for my Dom0. I did not reinstall Xen, nor the Dom0 kernel. And didn''t change any Xen configuration files. My SDL-based DomU running Win-XP no longer works. After xm start, I see the domU in the xm list, but it never accumulates any run time, and the window never pops up. If I switch to VNC-based instead (by setting sdl=0 in the file), it works fine. I can connect to the Windows session from a VNC viewer, just fine. Any suggestions? There''s nothing obvious in any files in /var/log, although I don''t really know what I''m looking for. I''ll post a tail of any log file of interest if anyone has suggestions. My config file, which has not changed since this worked under the older Gentoo Dom0: import os, re arch = os.uname()[4] if re.search(''64'', arch): arch_libdir = ''lib64'' else: arch_libdir = ''lib'' kernel = "/usr/lib/xen/boot/hvmloader" builder=''hvm'' memory = 512 name = "WindowsXP" usb = 1 usbdevice = "tablet" vif = [ ''type=ioemu, mac=00:16:3e:00:00:94, bridge=xenbr0'' ] disk = [ ''phy:/dev/main/win_xp_guest_domain,hda,w'', ''phy:/dev/cdrom,hdc:cdrom,r''] device_model = ''/usr/'' + arch_libdir + ''/xen/bin/qemu-dm'' boot="c" sdl=1 vnc=0 vncviewer=0 stdvga=0 serial=''pty'' ne2000=0 audio=1 soundhw=''all'' localtime=0 Derek. _______________________________________________ Xen-users mailing list Xen-users@lists.xensource.com http://lists.xensource.com/xen-users
