Hello All.
I need help to understand XenVGAPassthrough. I add xen-pciback.hide=(00:02.0@4) to kernel line in grub and then when PC come to loading of X I see blank screen. I have remote access, so I can start VM. And then I see same thing thing (can see start of booting process and problem at the end)
when I run VM with "gfx_passthru = 1" it is blank screen, without it I get some static pixels garbage in vnc window.
I need video acceleration in VM.
I run ubuntu 12.04 with xen 4.1.3 from repository, and currently I trying xen 4.2 from sources.
I've changed some Xen`s flags in ubuntu generic kernel form be module to be build-in:
