Linux Xen PVFB is a pair of Xen para-virtual frontend device drivers: drivers/video/xen-fbfront.c provides a framebuffer, and drivers/input/xen-kbdfront provides keyboard and mouse. Their backends run in dom0 user space. Parts in this patch series: 1. Enable Xen console by default in domU 2. Pointer z-axis (mouse wheel) support 3. Module aliases to support module autoloading 4. Zero unused bytes in events sent to backend 5. Dynamic mode support (screen resizing) To the best of my knowledge, these patches are independent. The last one needs a bit of trivial merging to apply without the first one. I tested only 1, 1+2, 1+2+3, 1+2+3+4, and the complete series. I'm happy to split this into different parts if that helps.
