[Fedora-xen] VNC and FreeNX disrupted is lost under XEN Dom0 kernel (mouse and keyboard are frozen)

[Jan Andrejkovic]

Hello,

I thought there is a pobrlem between FreeNX and FC6 XEN Dom0 kerenel but now
I discovered that there is also the same problem between VNC server and XEN
enabled kernel (vnc-server-4.1.2-9.fc6 and 2.6.19-1.2895.fc6xen). Does
anybody have the same problem?

Do you know any workaround?

Thank you,

Jan
