RE: [Xen-users] xenconsole: Could not read tty from store: Nosuchfile or directory

["Hamid Majidy" <hamid@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Thanks, Jim, for your input. I think I know what the problem is. I have not
installed XWindows which VNC depends on. Guest OSs will have server roles
and I avoid installing XWindows and the like on servers.

Sdl, apparently, also requires X.

So the question becomes, is there a text mode way to connect to domU guests
in Xen?

Thanks,
Hamid.

vnc=3 could mean it's presenting a session on 5903, not 5900. 
Put 'vncconsole=1' in your config to automatically spawn a vnc session.
After 
the guest is up, do a '/bin/ps a -HA' on dom0, for a threaded process
listing 
with command line args. The line under the one with 'qemu-dm' should be 
something like 'vncviewer :5903'.
