You'd have to bypass libvirt to use it. Are you sure you really need SDL? It has a serious usability problem: if you close its window, the PV framebuffer backend terminates, and you have to reboot the guest to get another one[**]. Why can't you stick to VNC? It works fine locally. Sorry, I can't answer you question on qemu-dm.

Cheesy hacks in the backend make this work. -- Fedora-xen mailing list Fedora-xen@xxxxxxxxxx https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-xen
