Still I'm not inclined to this way by two reasons:
        - There's really no point to reset Xen's VGA mode since xen doesn't 
require to touch it.
        - As in another mail, we either need to support dom0 real mode to 
try dom0's re-set path, or write a new one. But either way seems not 
meaningful, does it? :-)

Thanks,
Kevin
