Re: [Xen-users] Very Basic Question

[Czerwinski <czerwinski@xxxxxxxx>]

Stewart,

the Xen live CD runs the guest OSs with GUI. To me that means: It is  
definiteley possible.
I haven't been able to start the GUI on my DomUs up til now. As far as I  
could figure out, the live CD DomUs run a VNC server to which the Dom0  
connects to.
I spent some hours connecting the DomU to a Dom0-X-server (according to my  
opinion this should also be feasible) but it failed on some  
X-authorization-stuff... The DomU received a rejection from the  
Dom0-X-server. In other words, the communication seemed to work but the  
authorizations were not set properly.
This might not be exactly what you wanted to know... all I can say is that  
X/Gnome/KDE is possible - and I also would be pleased if somebody could  
name a HOWTO or anything else which could help here.
Thanks!

Cz.
