Is this an interesting use case? XenServer, for example, doesn't present a PV frame buffer to any PV guest and I don't recall anyone ever asking for it. There are better technologies for graphical remote access (e.g., remote X over SSH, RDP, VNC...). > 3). There are also some systemd and udev things missing. Really? What? There shouldn't be anything extra for a pure PV guest vs a PVHVM guest (which RedHat do support).] David _______________________________________________ CentOS-virt mailing list [email protected] http://lists.centos.org/mailman/listinfo/centos-virt
