   Yes, I have both of these settings. (Not quite sure what happened
to my original reply to billbaird3 -- it seems to have gone astray).

   I'm running Debian, so I don't have SDL-devel, but I've installed
every sdl development package I can find, and rebuilt and reinstalled
all the Xen tools and hypervisor from an updated copy of the hg repo.
Still no luck. Where should I be looking for errors or diagnostics?
There's nothing I can see obviously in the xend log file, for example.

   What program/task is responsible for running the SDL display? Is
there some way of determining what configuration / build options were
picked by the make process?

   Hugo.
