I don't know if I'm using SVGA console support. This is basically a 100%
clean checkout of xen-unstable.hg and I just did 'make' in the 'xen'
directory without changing any build config options, and I've not given any
special boot parameters to the HV. So if SVGA stuff is enabled by default,
then I'm using it.... Is there a grub boot option I can use to disable
it ?
Unfortunately this box is one of the 'nice' new legacy free machines
and thus no serial :-(

Thanks, I'll try some builds before & after these
