You cannot run X in a DomU as DomU's don't have physical access to the graphics hardware.

You can, however, run Xvnc within the DomU and run GDM within that. See the wiki for more details.

i want to be able to run gnome in xen. i used a ubuntu partition and used that as domU. now i can't seem to get gnome to work. everytime i try /etc/init.d/gdm start it say that gdm is already started. what am i doing wrong. is ti because gdm is running on another run-level?? how do i change run-levels in the DomU.
i am using debian sarge as Dom0
