You can use X in dom0 as a server for the domUs.
Just setup X servers with XDMCP in dom0 on the virtual consoles
of your choice. You can have them pinned down to certain domUs
or have the XDMCP client broadcast/multicast for the active
domUs to service.
You could even have particular domUs bring up SDL on a particular
X display in recent Xen implementations through a config option
(is it display?).
I'm trying to implement a cheap wall display. So using some example
numbers, a box with 4 video cards and 4 instances of linux running
within xen, with each being bound to a particular card. Then I have
another machine or instance which uses XDMX an X proxy, which manages
the 4 displays as one.
So it sounds like I can run my individual X instances all under xen instead of having to buy individual boxes. Right?
