<p class=MsoNormal>Hi,<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal>I have a problem with a small python script (using fedora 10
with its shipped rpm’s - libvirt-0.4.6-3.fc10.x86_64, libvirt-python-0.4.6-3.fc10.x86_64)<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal>I’m running a simple stupid libvirt python script.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal>I happen to want to use SDL, and it fails on “Could
not initialize SDL - exiting”.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal>While I need to solve this error (i.e., find out in which
version this patch was included to allow me to specify the DISPLAY <a
href="http://www.mail-archive.com/libvir-list@redhat.com/msg08764.html">http://www.mail-archive.com/libvir-list@redhat.com/msg08764.html</a>)<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal>I am more troubled by the fact that running the script again
gives a socket/pipe error until I restart libvirtd:<o:p></o:p></p>
