  Hi,

Wondered where some xen-vncfb processes handing around on my machine
came from.  After some Investigation I've figured that xen-vncfb never
ever exits if you boot a virtual machine with a virtual framebuffer
configured, but boot a kernel without framebuffer support.  It sits
waiting for the frontend device come up and doesn't exit when the domain
goes away.

Oh, and it also doesn't unmap the framebuffer memory once the frontend
enteres the "Closing" state.

cheers,
  Gerd
