Description Alexey 2008-11-19 16:48:58 UTC 
When I am trying to emerge nvidia-drivers the next problem has been occured:

Failed: Xen sanity check. Bailed out!

It is strange because I don't have a Xen kernel, paravirtualized guest support has been excluded and I don't have any XEN_CONFIG's in my .configure file.

Please, help in advise asap!

Reproducible: Always

Please post the output of `ls -l /usr/src'.

It is strange that I tried to do it with the different kernels and the different drivers and the same problem was occured. Maybe it is cached.

grep 'PARAVIRT' /usr/src/linux/.config gives what results?
Comment 4 Robert Piasek (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2009-01-18 10:32:54 UTC 
Why does this check has die??

This driver works ok with XEN and paravirtualised guest support (although it's not yet officially supported).

In my personal opinion die should be changed to warn/beep.

looks like the ebuild's PARAVIRT check is passed, nvidia has it's own that fails

fixed in newer versions
