I previously sent this help request to xen-api rather than xen-users.
My apologies for the re-send.
-------------------
I am following http://www.gentoo.org/doc/en/xen-guide.xml to build a new
box for use as dom0. For the dom0 kernel configu I used as a basis a
previous, working config from a non-xen kernel. That previous kernel
(2.6.32-gentoo-r7) exhibits no console video problem. My new xen
kernel, however, displays suitable console output as it boots the xen
kernel, but when it boots the dom0 kernel I compiled, the video turns to
a multicolored, unreadable scramble. Here are the relevant details of
my configuration:
xen-enabled kernel version 2.6.32 (from sys-kernel/xen-sources 2.6.32-r1)
xen 4.0.0 (from app-emulation/xen-4.0.0)
xen-tools 4.0.0 (from app-emulation/xen-tools-4.0.0)
# cat /boot/grub/grub.conf
default 0
timeout 10

I have an intel 82915G/GV/910GL graphics card so I configured AGP_INTEL,
DRM, FB, FB_BOOT_VESA_SUPPORT, FB_VGA16, FB_UVESA, FB_VESA, VGA_CONSOLE,
FONTS, FRAMEBUFFER_CONSOLE, and DUMMY_CONSOLE into the kernel. What am
I missing or screwing up? Thanks.
