Re: [Xen-devel] [RFC] Xen Virtual Framebuffer
Hi Jon,
The basic problem is running something like gdm or nautilus which want
to own the root X window. You'd have to use something like Xnest. It
doesn't help much with VT switching either which would be a really nice
feature to has.
However, using remote X is a good option for a number of use-cases so
it's certainly appropriate for certain environments.
Regards,
Anthony Liguori

I haven't tried playing with X and Xen, but why doesn't it work to
just treat the multiple domains like a network? You run X in dom0 and
give it full access to the video hardware. Then you ssh into each
domain and start X apps, just like you do when using X remotely.
OpenGL will even work this way and be accelerated (as soon as X fixes
indirect acceleration). This model should let you get apps up from
each domain simultaneously on the X display in dom0.
