List: I finally found a PC that had all of the necessary CPU instructions. It is my company issued i7 laptop. I loaded FreeBSD Current on a spare hard drive and Xen is able to start and the 'xl list' shows that my DomU is loaded and running. I just get a black screen when attempting a vncviewer connection to the Dom0 address from another computer. I have not been able to get X to start on this Lenovo W540 laptop because of known Xorg problems separating the Intel 4600 primary display and the Nvidia graphic chip for the docking station. I wanted to test the functionality of Xen on FreeBSD before commiting to purchase a new motherboard and CPU that supports VT-d and EPT. I also got a xenserver syntax error when following the example configuration shown on the FreeBSD Wiki writeup. The 'vnclisten = 0.0.0.0' should have quotes around it. It should read vnclisten = "0.0.0.0" Tom -- Public Keys: PGP KeyID = 0x5F22FDC1 GnuPG KeyID = 0x620836CF
