Re: Porting Xen in raspberry pi4B
Hi Stefano,
Thanks!
Any input further on "xenstore-ls" logs?
I am trying to run the x0vncserver & x11vnc server manually on guest machine(xen_guest_image_minimal) image but it's failing with the below error.

*** x11vnc was unable to open the X DISPLAY: ":0", it cannot continue. *** There may be "Xlib:" error messages above with details about the failure.
Some tips and guidelines:
** An X server (the one you wish to view) must be running before x11vnc is started: x11vnc does not start the X server. (however, see the -create option if that is what you really want).
** You must use -display <disp>, -OR- set and export your $DISPLAY environment variable to refer to the display of the desired X server. - Usually the display is simply ":0" (in fact x11vnc uses this if you forget to specify it), but in some multi-user situations it could be ":1", ":2", or even ":137". Ask your administrator or a guru if you are having difficulty determining what your X DISPLAY is.
** Next, you need to have sufficient permissions (Xauthority) to connect to the X DISPLAY. Here are some Tips:
- Often, you just need to run x11vnc as the user logged into the X session. So make sure to be that user when you type x11vnc. - Being root is usually not enough because the incorrect MIT-MAGIC-COOKIE file may be accessed. The cookie file contains the secret key that allows x11vnc to connect to the desired X DISPLAY. - You can explicitly indicate which MIT-MAGIC-COOKIE file should be used by the -auth option, e.g.: x11vnc -auth /home/someuser/.Xauthority -display :0 x11vnc -auth /tmp/.gdmzndVlR -display :0 you must have read permission for the auth file. See also '-auth guess' and '-findauth' discussed below.
** If NO ONE is logged into an X session yet, but there is a greeter login program like "gdm", "kdm", "xdm", or "dtlogin" running, you will need to find and use the raw display manager MIT-MAGIC-COOKIE file. Some examples for various display managers:
gdm: -auth /var/gdm/:0.Xauth -auth /var/lib/gdm/:0.Xauth kdm: -auth /var/lib/kdm/A:0-crWk72 -auth /var/run/xauth/A:0-crWk72 xdm: -auth /var/lib/xdm/authdir/authfiles/A:0-XQvaJk dtlogin: -auth /var/dt/A:0-UgaaXa
Sometimes the command "ps wwwwaux | grep auth" can reveal the file location.
Starting with x11vnc 0.9.9 you can have it try to guess by using:
-auth guess
(see also the x11vnc -findauth option.)
Only root will have read permission for the file, and so x11vnc must be run as root (or copy it). The random characters in the filenames will of course change and the directory the cookie file resides in is system dependent.

Any input as per above? Looking forward to hearing from you.

Hi Vipul,
If you look at the QEMU logs, it says:
VNC server running on 127.0.0.1:5900
That is the VNC server you need to connect to. So in theory:
vncviewer 127.0.0.1:5900
should work correctly.
If you have:
vfb = ["type=vnc"]
in your xl config file and you have "fbdev" in your Linux guest, it
should work.
If you connect to the VNC server but you get a black screen, it might be
a guest configuration issue. I would try with a simpler guest, text only
(no X11, no Wayland) and enable the fbdev console (fbcon). See
Documentation/fb/fbcon.rst in Linux. You should be able to see a
graphical console over VNC.
If that works, then you know that the fbdev kernel driver (xen-fbfront)
works correctly.
If it doesn't work, the output of "xenstore-ls" would be interesting.
Cheers,
Stefano
