I too, have failed to set any vga mode for any Xen installation.  Could
the developers confirm 1 more time that it "works for them" (if indeed)
and we can try to characterize the bug more.

> module /boot/vmlinuz-2.6.9-xen0 root=/dev/sda6 vga=0x133

I too have tried various vga variants without any success.
