Hello,
I thought there is a pobrlem between FreeNX and FC6 XEN Dom0 kerenel but now I discovered that there is also the same problem between VNC server and XEN enabled kernel (vnc-server-4.1.2-9.fc6 and 2.6.19-1.2895.fc6xen). Does anybody have the same problem?
Do you know any workaround?
Thank you,
Jan

Hello FC XEN list,
I already sent this e-mail to main Fedora mailing list but now I realised it will be better to send it to XEN dist list:
I have FC6 installed with latests patches (I use GNOME and XEN kernel 2.6.19-1.2895.fc6xen) with all current updates. I installed FreeNX from fedora extras and I tried to connect to this Dom0 kernel from Win XP client ( 2.1.0-16). The connection was successful but after a few seconds I lost the control using mouse and keyboard. I saw the screen, Gnome was just not responding. Even when I tried to resume abandoned session I saw the dektop again but I was not able to re-gain the control.
Then I removed freenx downloaded from extras and I installed newest rpms from nomachine web-site: nxclient-2.1.0-11.i386.rpm nxnode-2.1.0-15.i386.rpm nxserver-2.1.0-18.i386.rpm and for compatibility I had to add: compat-libstdc++-296-2.96-138.i386.rpm (downloaded from rpmfind)
However the result was the same - sesssion gets frozen after a couple of seconds. Then I tried to use older kernel - 2.6.18-1.2798.fc6xen with the same result - once I just moved the mouse over gnome main menu the session was frozen.
(I did not make so much observations yet but I think it is somehow related to mouse because when the session is waiting for the text input it will not get frozen so easily.
In final I tried non-XEN kernel 2.6.19-1.2895.fc6 and it seems to be working fine.
Does anybody notice the same behaviour? I would like to try GUI manager to setup some domains but I can't... (Well, VNC is probaby the option...)
Thank you,
Jan
