Actual Results: not startable. xen doesn't work either
Hi, I can reproduce the error message and behaviour with regards to yast. It is possible however to use xen domUs on my machine after executing: chkconfig xencommons off and rebooting the machine.

--- Comment #4 from Karl Scowen
I've found the same with a SUSE Studio build I did. YaST gives me the error sbin/yast2: line 423: 5057 Illegal instruction $ybindir/y2base $module "$@" "$SELECTED_GUI" $Y2_GEOMETRY $Y2UI_ARGS
The same message is given whether VT_x is enabled or disabled in the BIOS. Sometimes YaST won't even start, other times it only occurs when loading a YaST module. But it always occurs before I can do anything with YaST.
I don't know if Xen virtualisation works or not as I haven't tried.
I've found that the build works fine in VirtualBox.
Firefox doesn't work when running on hardware, but works fine in VirtualBox once again – which may or may not be related.
My hardware is a Sandy Bridge i5 2500K CPU in a Gigabyte GA-P67A-UD3R-B3 motherboard with 4 GB RAM.
I can confirm that the same build works fine on a Pentium 4 541 in a Asus P5K SE motherboard, and also works fine with the normal kernel (I installed it using the P4, then booted it with the i5, and it worked fine (used the normal kernel by default)). -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.
