Since the vserver can not load a module I load it in the host.
The host is my also my testsystem for the nvidia-module. I have a complete x-workstation installed in the host.

I have not tried this yet, but this is one of my priorities after I finish the servers. I also would be interested in a solution.

One question. Do you pre-load the nvidia module at startup so X doesn't have to try to insert it into the kernel?

I am going to need full functionality since I run a heavily loaded twinview desktop.

Hello List,

I try to run a complete workstation in a vserver including a x-server.
This is no problem since I do not try to use the hardware acceleration with the nvidia kernel module.
I have set several capabilities for the vserver:

CAP_CHOWN
CAP_DAC_READ_SEARCH
CAP_FOWNER
CAP_FSETID
CAP_KILL
CAP_SETGID
CAP_SETUID
CAP_SETPCAP
CAP_NET_BIND_SERVICE
CAP_NET_BROADCAST
CAP_NET_RAW
CAP_SYS_MODULE
CAP_SYS_RAWIO
CAP_SYS_CHROOT
CAP_SYS_PTRACE
CAP_SYS_PACCT
CAP_MKNOD
CAP_LEASE

I copied the device files from the host to the vserver. If I use the "nv" driver for xfree all is well. But if I try to use "nvidia" xfree fails
with the error "unable to load kernel module". This is clear for me.
Then I tried to figure out which device is used with the "nv" driver. I tried to copa the device file /dev/nvidia0-4 from the host to /dev/video0-4 in the vserver.
But the 3d-accel does not function...

Does anyone have a hint for me, how I can manage this? Or is it impossible?
I use this configuration to deploy the workstations to a pool of pc's. Therefor the security between host and vserver is not first goal.

Greets, Torsten
