X isn't installed on the machine... on purpose. I reckon I should do  
anyway and rather specify sdl=1, no?
The behaviour of vnc disconnecting upon first connection is pretty  
consistent. I guess I'm paying the price of trying to stick to  
packaged distributions (ubuntu feisty), rather than compiling  
everything myself. The road using para-virtualized domains isn't  
particularly well-paved either, as it seems to be the idea that Dom0  
and DomU should share the same kernel, and the feisty xen-tools  
package has no debootstrap feisty build target.
That, and the foulish idea to run an ISDN-based Asterisk installation  
on a DomU. ;-/
