Re: [Xen-users] how can I use this patch xen-patches-2.6.34-1.tar.bz2 for dom0

[Boris Derzhavets <bderzhavets@xxxxxxxxx>]

I am also experiencing issue with virt-install. It may be started only in nographics mode
under 2.6.34 xenified and at the same time vnc mode is available under 2.6.32.16 pvops. It's Libvirt 0.8.2 ( along with all related packages : virtinst,python-virtinst,...)
& Xen 4.0.1-rc4 on top of Ubuntu Lucid Server.
Something goes wrong in interaction Xen VFB with 2.6.34 xenified.

Boris.

All three configs suggested above :-

1. Have backend Dom0 drivers described as modules <M> , what causes "Hotplug scripts not working" issue to raise up right away. Exactly as for pvops kernel backend Dom0 drivers should be described as hard linked <*>  to avoid issue mentioned above at least on Ubuntu 10.04 Server.
2. CONFIG_SYSFS_DEPRECATED should not be set also at least on Ubuntu 10.04 Server.
