No, I don't think it will work. The modifications made to the Xen kernel typically prevent proprietary drivers working. Just another reason why open source drivers are much better for everyone.

If i use open source nvidia drivers provided by opensuse, will i have 3d support ?? Or i have to choice between virtualization and 3d support? :)

That's pretty much it in a nutshell. You can always cheat and run a Xen server with no graphics, and have a client ssh -X into it with 3d enabled. You can then administer your Xen server in a 3d environment :-)

You could look here: http://en.opensuse.org/Use_Nvidia_driver_with_Xen But I've not seen anyone actually get this to work though.

Yeah Yeah. This is for OpenSuSe 10.2 . But this doesn't work for me.

Well, I did say I'd never seen anyone actually get it to work... Jon -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org
