Hello,
I try to get a Nvidia Quadro PCI-E graphics card to work with xen in
Dom0 with the binary nivida-drivers.
I use the xen-2.0-testing tarball with kernel 2.6.12 and the nvidia
driver package NVIDIA-Linux-x86-1.0-7676-pkg1.
The nvidia kernel module compiles without errors but when I try to
load it segfaults.
Is it possibly because the tls-libs are disabled?
Has anyone managed to get the nvidia drivers to work with xen? Or is
there a general problem with xen + nvidia?
This is a recipe for disaster. The nVidia kernel driver has a binary
layer that it not Xen-ready. It's very likely that it's going to be
doing something it's not supposed to do in Xen.
You're out of luck until nVidia releases a Xen driver. You can also use
the Open Source driver (or even just Vesa).
This is why binary modules are so evil...

Not sure I can help, but there's been general problems with nvidia
driver for a looong time. Check the threads on nvnews.com .
Many still use the old 6629 driver, though it doesn't have as many
fancy features as later drivers. Then again, you may not need 8x AA
and AF...
Of cause those problems are not normally related to Xen, but you may
wan't to give 6629 a try.
