Package: nvidia-kernel-source
Version: 190.53-2
Severity: normal

Hi,

starting X under xen leaves the console broken.


I just build a xen pv-ops kernel from git (2.6.31.6 + xen patches) and
compiled the nvidia-kernel module against it using the instructions
from http://en.opensuse.org/Talk:Use_Nvidia_driver_with_Xen:

  vi /usr/src/mdules/nvidia-kernel/Makefile.kbuild

  Insert the following code after EXTRA_CFLAGS += -Wall..
  XEN_FEATURES := $(shell grep "D xen_features" /boot/System.map-$(shell uname -r) | colrm 17)
  EXTRA_LDFLAGS := --defsym xen_features=0x$(XEN_FEATURES)

  Close the file and set some environment variables:
  export IGNORE_XEN_PRESENCE=1

make-kpkg --append-to-version -xen-2010.02.18 --revision 2.6-xen-2010.02.18-1 --added-modules nvidia-kernel modules-image


After that I installed the deb and modprobed nvidia. Then when I start
X I get the following in dmesg:

The X is killed leaving the screen broken. No text console and
nothing. Luckily ssh logins are unaffected so it isn't a complete
crash.
