I'm using the default client that is installed with the Centos 6 VM. I believe the default now is TigerVNC, which I think used to be TightVNC. The #2 above seems accurate to describe my problem. Again, I have a Centos 5 server with Xen on it. I'm trying to install a Centos 6 VM under that system. It's a fully virtuallized VM. I can install the system just fine, but when it's time to reboot and bring up the new VM , all I get is a bunch of garbage on the screen as if X11 can't start, over and over. I thought I read somewhere where this type of setup uses a vnc connection. Thanks steve
