Mailing List Archive: Getting X Working with domU's

I too have the same problem w/ the same error and would be very glad to know what's the problem.

The special thing about my setup is that the machine is diskless so I'm using a file-backed VBD over NFS (since dom0 is diskless...).
In addition to that the file doesn't contain the entire FS. I seperately mount /usr and /opt as read-only.
This however does not pose any problem to dom0.
The file-system is suse 9.2.

I was able to bring-up X in domU when the entire FS was mounted read-write in one file.

thanks,

Ro'ee

Subject: [Xen-users] Getting X Working with domU's

I know that there have been mixed confirmations about getting X working within domU's. But for those who DO have it working, I would be interested in finding out your experiences. Currently, when I try to run Xorg -configure or startx, it complains about xf86OpenConsole: Cannot open /dev/tty0 (No such file or directory). My domU is currently running Fedora Core 3.

Thanks,
Joe
