[Bug 337425] New: No error feedback if using wrong kernel
https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=337425 Summary: No error feedback if using wrong kernel Product: openSUSE 10.3 Version: Final Platform: Other OS/Version: openSUSE 10.3 Status: NEW Severity: Enhancement Priority: P5 - None Component: Xen AssignedTo: cgriffin@novell.com ReportedBy: jim.pye@pyenet.co.nz QAContact: qa@suse.de Found By: --- It would be good to have some visual feedback that you are trying to launch the xen Virtual Machine Manager on the wrong kernel. Using KDE and launching the xen VMM from the main menu. If I have booted the machine on the Normal Linux kernel the VMM will not launch. However there is no error message or any indication of what is wrong. Some error dialog at this point would be good indicating the VMM has detected an incorrectly configured kernel.

We'll consider it. At CLI you should see an error message.

After posting this enhancement request I changed the boot loader default to the Xen kernel :-) I am experimenting with Xen as a replacement for VMWare so have VM CLients running on a KDE laptop for some development work etc. so use the GUI here. Once the budget becomes available for a new server I will be installing Xen and several VMs on that and probably be using the CLI there.

Tools such as virt-manager, virsh, etc. need to work equally well with Xen or default kernel (KVM). I seriously doubt this will be fixed for 10.3 and given we want the tools to work with default kernel going forward, I think we should just close this as WONTFIX. -- 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.
