[Bug 552492] New: X server locks when the kernel is of xen flavour
http://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=552492 Summary: X server locks when the kernel is of xen flavour Classification: openSUSE Product: openSUSE 11.2 Version: RC 2 Platform: x86-64 OS/Version: openSUSE 11.2 Status: NEW Severity: Major Priority: P5 - None Component: Xen AssignedTo: jdouglas@novell.com ReportedBy: jp.pozzi@izzop.net QAContact: qa@suse.de Found By: --- Created an attachment (id=325501) --> (http://bugzilla.novell.com/attachment.cgi?id=325501) Files from /var/log/gdm in tar format User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.9.1.4) Gecko/20091028 Iceweasel/3.5.4 (Debian-3.5.4-1) Hello, I try the opensuse 11.2 rc2 and I get a problem using XEN : The Xserver does not work when launched with the xen kernel. All is OK when I start with other kernels (desktop or failsafe) where X is working perfectly. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. use the XEN kernel 2. try to use X 3. it's done Actual Results: I have done no specific changes from the installation (out of the box). When started nothing can be done, the keyboard does not allow to switch to another tty (Ctrl+Alt+F1 does nothing). I can connect to the system through ssh from another system and even when i stop and restart the "xdm" service the screen stay the same as if nothing was done. The problem seems to be with "gdm", but the same result was obtained with "kdm".

X-Server starts now. However, xend still fails to start, so i can provide dmesg & xend.log . View attachments
Can't say anything about the xend issue, you'll need a separate bug for that. If restricting the memory to less than 4G works, then we may already have a fix available internally. We'll have to prepare a test kernel with that fix included, though (which may take some time). -- Configure bugmail: http://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.

Sorry, my experience with Suse is limited. I would be glad to test patch with step by step instruction. I need xen-kernel source installed on the machine , but don't know where to get kernel-source-???.x86_64.rpm ( i suspect kernel-xen-source ...)
If you don't need the exact RC2 kernel, you could try ftp://ftp.suse.com/pub/projects/kernel/kotd/openSUSE-11.2/noarch/. -- Configure bugmail: http://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.

I can start and use a VM through virt-manager I've reinstalled system and edited xen command line with mem=4G before first attempt to load Xen Host. I've got alive Dom0 with running xend. However, i was able to create F12 PV DomU only mannualy via local Apache Mirror. Any attempt to run vm-install with --source http://IP-Dom0/f12 either nfs:IP-Dom0:/mnt/tmp (nfs shared folder) causes vm-install to crash. HTTP Error 404 for local or remote HTTP source.

Installed kernel-source.rpm and applied patch. Ran make menuconfig in source directory and tuned xenified kernel per Suse as usual. "xm dmesg","dmesg" reports are attached.
For the purposes of this bug, it would be nice to know if X now came up okay without the mem=4G workaround. -- Configure bugmail: http://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.
