hi, i have a station with Intel mothercard. since my windows is slow, i checked the property of the driver used for the Intel; and i found "Cirrus Logic 5446" i think there''s a link with my slow winxp, isn''t it? here''s my config: kernel = "/usr/lib/xen/boot/hvmloader" builder = ''hvm'' memory = 1024 name = "winxp" vcpus = 1 vif = [ ''type=ioemu, bridge=xenbr0'' ] # disk = [ ''file:/home/xen/domains/WinXP.img,ioemu:hda,w'',''file:/home/iso/winxp_pro.iso,ioemu:hdc:cdrom,r'' ] # disk = [ ''phy:/dev/sda7,ioemu:hda,w'',''file:/home/iso/winxp.iso,ioemu:hdc:cdrom,r'' ] disk = [ ''phy:/dev/sda7,ioemu:hda,w'' ] device_model = ''/usr/lib/xen/bin/qemu-dm'' boot = ''c'' sdl = 1 sdtvga = 0 vnc = 1 # vncviewer = 0 # vnclisten = "127.0.0.1" serial = ''pty'' ne2000 = 0 keymap = ''fr'' usbdevice = ''tablet'' on_poweroff = ''destroy'' on_reboot = ''restart'' on_crash = ''restart'' and my station: model name : Intel(R) Core(TM)2 CPU 6300 @ 1.86GHz so, how configure the windows HVM to run normaly? is there wrong with my config? thank in advance. _______________________________________________ Xen-users mailing list Xen-users@lists.xensource.com http://lists.xensource.com/xen-users

The update frequency in QEMU may not be fast, but that''s because it''s artificially rate-limited to 30Hz update frequency. If it''s actually slow at drawing to the screen (rather than updating what you actually SEE on the SDL/VNC window), then it''s most likely because of something else being wrong in your configuration of the entire system (the most obvious one being that Dom0 is busy with something else). I don''t see anything wrong in your config. However, how much memory are you leaving for Dom0 - if it''s memory limited, then it may slow things down for that reason. -- Mats _______________________________________________ Xen-users mailing list Xen-users@lists.xensource.com http://lists.xensource.com/xen-users
