Nice job tracking down that bug. As for the new problems, I had those at first 
too. Some vncviewers support changing the bit depth. Try -LowColourLevel, 
or -bgr233, etc. The mouse issues sound like you need the evtouch tablet 
driver. If your distro doesn't provide it, try the link mentioned in the xen 
docs section 'A.4.3 Mouse issues, especially under VNC':

You are going to have to play with the MaxX/MaxY values - I set them to the 
screen resolution.
