Thanks Boris, I haven't attempted to rebuild in suse... but have tried using XEN 4.0 (as comes with openSUSE11.3 and the kotd last week. I've updated my Novell bug report with the latest errors. Seems to be a 'new' problem and not seeing hotplugin error at least.

https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=612006

"Unable to open connection to hypervisor URI"

Any thoughts? This is remarkably annoying. ;O) I also think xend isnt' starting well which may explain the above error from VManager.

Suse's build requirements for 4.0 src.rpm

zypper install LibVNCServer-devel SDL-devel acpica automake bin86 curl-devel dev86 \
graphviz latex2html libjpeg-devel libxml2-devel ncurses-devel openssl openssl-devel \
pciutils-devel python-devel texinfo transfig \
texlive texlive-latex \
glibc-32bit glibc-devel-32bit

4.0.1 should require + iasl, bison , flex
The rest is to define packages names for iasl,bison,flex on Suse

Boris.

I have opensuse 11.3 with kotd kernel now installed on my W510 laptop. I am trying to recompile the xen4-testing.hg source to try out 4.0.1rc5.

I've added the c/c++ patterns and dev86 packages. Then "make xen" works. Calling "make tools" bombs out in two places:
a) can't find: stub-32.h header file at /usr/src/gnu/
b) can't find: /usr/include/bits/predef.h

Can anyone point me to a set of instructions for opensuse 11.3 build of XEN source? The XEN 4.0 source wiki instructions worked fine with Ubuntu. Not the case with opensuse. ;o(

Michael,

I will update bug also. I am not a Suse's expert, but Jan Beulich is out of office until 08/05/2010. Looks like kernel at page i mentioned bellow has Jan's patch already applied and works with udev 157 on 11.3. This page seems to be updated on daily basis. I just downloaded current xen-kernel. Installed Xen host from DVD and installed new kernel :-

# rpm -ivh kernel-xen-2.6.34.1-0.0.17.fdda44d.x86_64.rpm

Grub entry would be created automatically. Reloaded system works fine:-

1. virt-install to create PV or HVM DomU
2. virt-manager to manage PV or HVM DomU

I cannot issue any waranty until Jan will confirm , that kernel is OK with udev 157

Boris.

Hi Boris,

Does this thread address the problems I've seen in this bug-thread? That is: hot-scripts not working issue? How can we (the end-users) track where or when this may be included in a kernel for opensuse 11.3?

https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=612006

FWIW I added your latest comments to this bug in case.

Mike.

I see this bug in 11.3 final with udev 157, e.g. attempt to install 11.3 PV DomU
at 11.3 Dom0 ("Hotplug scripts not working"). If patch exists and 2.6.34-12-xen
may be patched, how to proceed ?

Boris.
P.S Downgrade to 151 works for PV Guests (for me), but not for HVM.
