[Fedora-xen] Fwd: FreeNX session - mouse and keyboard frozen under XEN Dom0 kernel

[Jan Andrejkovic]

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
