On server with dom0 xen 4 from hg-4.0testing and kernel 2.6.32.10 pv_ops i
try to view vnc on domU karmik but view always black screen
I have create manually domU karmic with deboostrap and official kernel
The config file of domU is:
bootloader = '/usr/bin/pygrub'
memory      = '1024'

#
#  Disk device(s).
#
root        = '/dev/xvda1 ro'
disk        = ['file:/mnt/vm/disks/oqrm.disk1.xm,xvda1,w',
'file:/mnt/vm/disks/oqrm.disk2.xm,xvda2,w']

#
#  Hostname
#
name        = 'OQRM'

#
#  Networking
#
vif         = [ 'bridge=eth0' ]

#
#  Behaviour
#
on_poweroff = 'destroy'
on_reboot   = 'restart'
on_crash    = 'restart'

#extra = '2 console=xvc0'

vfb = [ 'vnc=1,vncdisplay=15' ]

I do some error or there is a bug?

It works with PV as well. Or rather it used to before 4.0 - I am seeing
QEMU die on me, thought haven't tracked it down (and also this could be
related to how I set up XenStore keys.)

Does your domU kernel have the xen virtual framebuffer driver module loaded? 
Is your domU kernel using the vfb as the console?

if it is supported for pv guests, is it possible to run X using that
virtual framebuffer and interact with X on pv guest using vnc?

Yes, it is possible.

Usually it's faster and better to run Xvnc or NX in the domU,
and connect over the network directly to the domU.

Console connections should only be used for maintenance when the
network is not yet configured etc.

Yeah I understand just something good to know in case its ever needed
:) Anything special needed besides enabling the fb in domu kernel?
