<html><head></head><body><div style="font-family: Verdana;font-size: 12.0px;"><div>Dear all,</div> <div> </div> <div>I am trying to run Xserver inside a priviledged LXC container with access to the hardware. Unfortunately I cannot get it to work. When I try to startx I get the following error: <code>xf86OpenConsole: Switching VT failed</code> System is Intel Bay Trail with Intel HD 515 graphics, the container is Devuan Stable. LXC is version 2.1.1. I am trying to run the entire x11 server inside the container with direct access to the hardware. I am aware that there is a solution to run the server on the host and only the apps in the container but that is not what I am looking for. Any help would be really appreciated! Please help I am really stuck here… Thank you, Alex config of the LXC container: <blockquote> lxc.cgroup.devices.allow = c 226:0 rwm lxc.cgroup.devices.allow = c 4:0 rwm lxc.cgroup.devices.allow = c 4:7 rwm lxc.cgroup.devices.allow = c 4:8 rwm </blockquote> Script inside container: <blockquote> mknod -m 666 /dev/dri/card0 c 226 0 mknod -m 666 /dev/tty0 c 4 7 mknod -m 666 /dev/tty7 c 4 7 mknod -m 666 /dev/tty8 c 4 8 </blockquote> Error message from Xorg <blockquote> [ 4733.780] <a href="http://X.Org" rel="nofollow noopener">X.Org</a> X Server 1.19.2 Release Date: 2017-03-02 [ 4733.781] X Protocol Version 11, Revision 0 [ 4733.781] Build Operating System: Linux 4.9.0-8-amd64 x86_64 Debian [ 4733.781] Current Operating System: Linux desktop 4.14.95 #0 SMP Wed Jan 30 12:21:02 2019 x86_64 [ 4733.781] Kernel command line: BOOT_IMAGE=/boot/vmlinuz root=PARTUUID=3bbf27a1-02 rootfstype=ext4 rootwait i915.modeset=0 acpi_enforce_resources=lax console=tty0 console=ttyS0,115200n8 noinitrd [ 4733.781] Build Date: 03 November 2018 03:09:11AM [ 4733.781] xorg-server 2:1.19.2-1+deb9u5 (<a href="https://www.debian.org/support" rel="nofollow noopener">https://www.debian.org/support</a>) [ 4733.781] Current version of pixman: 0.34.0 [ 4733.781] Before reporting problems, check <a href="http://wiki.x.org" rel="nofollow noopener">http://wiki.x.org</a> to make sure that you have the latest version.
