Re: [Xen-devel] Compiling nouveau open source nvidia graphics card drivers for Xen paravirt-operations domain 0 kernel

[Boris Derzhavets <bderzhavets@xxxxxxxxx>]

All what i do on F11:-

# yum install vncserver

Then put in /etc/rc.local

export HOME=/root
vncserver :1 -geometry 1280x1024 -depth 16

Reboot Xen Host and connect remotely via vncviewer  , using local X-server and GDM on Xen Host. KDM fails to with Xen.

There was one feed from Ian Campbell regarding Nvidia support by pvops kernel,
followed by Jeremy Fitzhardinge notice. :(

 Do you remember that ?

Boris.
P.S. GeForce 8500 GT installed on my box.

I might give Driver "intel" a try in xorg.conf.. Let me reboot to Intel GMA4500 first.

Dear Boris,

Could you get X.org X server to work with Xen pv-ops dom 0 kernels 2.6.30-rc3 and 2.6.31-rc6 under Fedora 11 64-bit?

There is no nouveau driver for jeremy's dom 0 kernel. And when I tried to compiled nouveau against Jeremy's kernel, it would not work.

Although I could compile and install official nvidia drivers against Jeremy's kernel, X server will hang and freeze.

So I tried to use driver "nv" and "vesa" for X server when I booted Jeremy's kernel. But X still would not work and give me a backtrace.

All this is when I am using NVIDIA Geforce 8400 GS PCI Express x16.

If I switch over to using onboard integrated graphics Intel GMA 4500, is it supported under Jeremy Fitzhardinge's pvops dom 0 kernel? What driver can I use in xorg.conf?

Thank you.

Why would you expect them to take care of Xen pvops ?


Boris.

Dear Pasi,

I have compiled ttm and nouveau successfully against the stock/vanilla 2.6.31-rc6 kernel WITHOUT Xen paravirt-ops Domain 0 patch.

So it seems that nouveau could not be compiled against Xen pv-ops dom 0 kernel and could not work with it.

Do I need to request nouveau and tungsten developers to make ttm and nouveau code Xen pvops dom 0 aware?
