Re: [Xen-users] Error of building dom0 kernel
Hi Todd,
I will compile dom0 using other Linux distributions(e.g, Fedora) to see if it works. I referenced those threads you mentioned, but seems no final solution. One possible cause related to hardware is I use a new type of DELL OPTIPLEX 790. It's very weird that when installing Ubuntu9 and 10, the screen is totally messed up so that I can only install Ubuntu8(11.04 is too new).
Also the error of intel-agp.c is common which can be seen in dozens of threads, and I'm not sure replacing it with another intel-agp.c is a standard way.
Best,
Liu

There are several references to "xen_pcpu_index"
http://xen.markmail.org/search/?q=xen_pcpu_index#query:xen_pcpu_index+page:1+mid:vts33haap3utumue+state:results
http://xen.markmail.org/search/?q=xen_pcpu_index#query:xen_pcpu_index+page:1+mid:x6m2gyjm3qtnttsc+state:results
etc.
It seems that it has gone unresolved a few times. I'm not sure if this
a known issue or what type of problem it is. Can you provide more
details about your hardware or any other information that may be
relevant?
You may want to review
http://wiki.xensource.com/xenwiki/AskingXenDevelQuestions as there may
be developers that would be able to shed some light on this issue.
Maybe with the information in the other threads you will gain some
insights about the problem.
Thanks,
Todd
