Well, this is fairly useless. The mouse doesn't work at all, so the desktop is 
unusable. I have to 'xm console ...' in to give commands. I turned on sshd, 
and changed the SuSEfirewall rules so I can use ssh as well.

The resolution is unchangeable. The hvm tricks that worked - vga=0x31a, or 
defining an xorg.conf don't work. And Fajar's xen-fbfront.video=32,1280,1024 
option in menu.lst didn't either. I wouldn't be surprised if suse renamed the 
module, though, like it renamed xennet and xenblk. However, since 
XEN_FRAMEBUFFER is builtin, I can't find the name of the module to modify it's 
options.

Oh well.
