Hi Javi,
I'd like to run an X server in the container. My GPU card has two GPUs so I'd like run run one container with access to /dev/nvidia0 and the other one with access to /dev/nvidia1. As I want to use X rendering I need to start an X server in the container and I will access to this server through TurboVNC/VirtualGL.
The problem is that if I start an X server within the container by using xinit command I get the error:
Fatal server error: xf86OpenConsole: VT_ACTIVATE failed: Invalid argument
I think that I have this error because with libvirt, /dev/ttyX is a link to /dev/pts/X. Currently I only try to start X server on /dev/tty1 on my laptop without GPU but my final goal is to do it on a machine that has GPU.
I hope that I give a more clear picture of my goal :) Regards, Guillaume
I haven't used x windows in my container. If you want use /dev/tty of host in container. Please have a try as below cat device.xml <hostdev mode='capabilities' type='misc'> <source> <char>/dev/tty</char> </source> </hostdev> You can use virsh cmd "attach-device domainname device.xml" to hot plug this tty device to the container. You can add the xml into configure file too.
