Hi,

I'm trying to start Xorg on a PV Fedora8 guest running 2.6.21.7 fedora stock xen kernel, however, it seems that there's no xenfb.ko driver included in the .rpm package.

The only included drivers I see in /lib/modules are:

emre@xenroot:/lib/modules/2.6.21.7-3.fc8xen/kernel/drivers/xen$ ls
blkback  blkfront  blktap  netback  netfront  pciback

however, if I look at the source rpm:

emre@xenroot:/d/xen/fedora8/xen-3.1.3/linux-2.6-xen-sparse/drivers/xen$ ls
balloon   blktap   core     gntdev    netback   pcifront  util.c
blkback   char     evtchn   Kconfig   netfront  privcmd   xenbus
blkfront  console  fbfront  Makefile  pciback   tpmback   xenoprof

I can clearly see the fbfront directory, with "xenfb.c  xenkbd.c" files inside.

Am I missing something or is there a specific reason why these drivers were excluded from the default build?

Thanks a lot for your comments.

Emre
