[Xen-users] domU gui problems

[george <george@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

I'm trying to set up a laptop with xen and a number of graphical domU.

I've installed archlinux and xen 4.5.0 and they are working fine as far 
as I can see.  I'm running xfce in dom0 and have some console based domu 
running archlinux all fine.
I can't get a graphical domU without problems though.  I'm working with 
archlinux only (so far) and I find:
- PV domU won't display a window using sdl
- PV domu using vnc gets two mouse pointers, one on the physical screen 
and one in the domU window, which separate if I change the default 
window size
- HVM domU will display a window using sdl but the mouse pointer is missing
- HVM domU with vnc only shows the mouse pointer for the physical screen 
so clicks act somewhere unknown
I've read all the documentation I can find, and googled everything I can 
think of but I'm stuck now.  I suspect that all the documentation saying 
things "just work" is based on heavier weight distros and I'm missing 
some package(s)/driver(s) that aren't stated as dependencies but, other 
than guessing, I don't know what to try any more.  There is nothing in 
any logs which points me to anything.
I haven't included any hardware, config details or logs as I don't know 
what, if any, would help and I don't want to make this post any longer 
than it is already.
I did have ideas of comparing the various options but now I'd take any 
option for a graphical domu working, so any help at all will be appreciated.
TIA,
George
