Hi, What is currently the latest, working, old-style xen kernel available?

2.6.31-rc6(5,4,3,..) via Jeremy Fitzhardinge Git Repo seems to be good
on 64-bit F11 & Ubuntu 9.04 under 3.4.1 Hypervisor.

I usually use something like this on PV domU config #=== memory = "500" maxmem = "8000" vcpus=8 vcpu_avail=1 cpus="1-7" #=== this works on forward-ported (old-style) -xen kernels. It doesn''t work on Jeremy''s git repo, which behaves like vanilla kernel (it can''t grow bigger than what it was at startup). Is there a config option I should change? -- Fajar _______________________________________________ Xen-users mailing list Xen-users@lists.xensource.com http://lists.xensource.com/xen-users

I''m currently using dkms-fuse on RHEL5.3, and that feature lack has prevented me from using things like zimbra (the ldap part) or apt-get (for building chroot environment) on zfs-fuse. It works fine with newer kernels. -- Fajar _______________________________________________ Xen-users mailing list Xen-users@lists.xensource.com http://lists.xensource.com/xen-users

So if you have Xen 3.4.1, you can go ahead with libvirt 0.7.0.6 regardess of which kernel you use.> > > > > this error while running #vncviewer localhost:0 > > > > Copyright (C) 2002-2005 RealVNC Ltd. > > Copyright (C) 2000-2006 TightVNC Group > > Copyright (C) 2004-2009 Peter Astrand for Cendio AB > > See http://www.tigervnc.org for information on TigerVNC. > > vncviewer: unable to open display “”>From the look of this you''re starting vncviewer process on theserver(?) but it does not have correct DISPLAY environment set. Try "echo $DISPLAY". It should have something like ":0.0". If not, and you''re using ssh to access the server, you need X forwarding. If it''s on your local notebook/PC, then probably you start terminal as normal user then run "su -". If that''s the case, you can run "su -p -" instead of just "su -". It will preserve necessary environment variables (including DISPLAY. At least this works on Ubuntu).
