I had been testing using framebuffer only; I just tested Xorg, and it
appears to be working - I don't see any errors in my Xorg.0.log or on
the Xen console. Haven't tried running anything more interesting than
xterm, though.

I'm not certain if I've ended up testing the Xen fbdev device, or just
using the guest's i915 driver within the guest. This is with an empty
xorg.conf{,.d/}.

The only issue I've been having is that I haven't been able to get the
system to work more than once per powerup, even with a soft reboot of
the host (going back to the real BIOS). There's obviously some state not
being reset by the startup that is tripping it on later boots, but I
haven't yet been able to find out what it is.
