The other file needed is /etc/xen/qemu-ifup.

I've got everything working with the SDL display model (running Windows XP 
under Xen on a Intel VT system), but haven't been able to get VNC working 
yet.

It would probably also be good to include /usr/sbin/xen-bugtool in the 
main xen-utils-3.0 package.

(Speaking of bugs, should I be opening a 'Wishlist' bug for this?)
