Xen project Mailing List

Hi Shane-
Thanks for the response, I played with Ubuntu/Xen a little over a year ago on this system and didn't have a problem with the onboard video, but certainly something I need to verify on a newer distro.

Thanks,
David

David,
I don't know if it still the case but when I tried to run one of those
on board video cards in my Debian install it wouldn't work with the
Xen kernel. At the time it was a problem with the version of glibc it
was compiled with. Hopefully this isn't an issue with your
Distro/Version.
