Never seen that?

If your using SDL and you close it, you kill the vm! Use vnc...

gplpv are not production ready, they are still in early stages of development.
If you plan to do pass through in an hvm, you need hardware that supports this
which is different from hardware that *just* supports hvm's and a more recent
version of xen I think, don't recall if hvm pass-through was in 3.2.1, maybe.
