I want to run X in domU, But it gets a black screen from booting up.

My configuration and steps as follows:

xen-3.4.0, linux-2.6.18.8

1. make linux-2.6-xen-config
select framebuffer options.

2. make linux-2.6-xen-build

3. key lines in /etc/inittab of domU
co:2345:respawn:/sbin/agetty xvc0 9600 vt100-nav
S0:2345:respawn:/sbin/mingetty ttyS0

4. Xen's config file for domU
name = "vm1"
memory = 512
kernel = "/boot/vmlinuz-2.6.28.8-xen"
disk = [ 'file:/home/xenvm/rootfs-vm1.img,sda1,w' ]
root = "/dev/sda1 ro"
restart = "onreboot"
ramdisk = "/boot/initrd-2.6.18.8-xen.img"
vif = [ 'mac=00:00:00:11:22:00', bridge=xenbr0, ]
ip = "192.168.20.180"
extra = "xencons=tty0 console=ttyS0 video=xenfb"
vfb = [ 'type=sdl' ]

5. xm create vm1

I tried as above, but what I get in the SDL windows is only a black window.
