Subject: vixen and vfb, missing vfb support in qemu

It seems the list of missing features of vixen does not cover the lack
of framebuffer support. 'xl create -Vf PV.cfg' would show the guest
console in the VNC window. With vixen this can not work because the vfb
code triggers only for PV guests.

Is that missing feature on anyones radar already? At least I did not
find it in the public discussions that took place in the past days.

What would it take for qemu to provide a vfb backend?

Olaf
