This means with:
        vga = "qxl"

in your configuration file? Are you saying that this configuration
works? If not this then which configuration do you believe works?

What is the configuration which fails?

Which libxl patch "should be correct"? libxl has lots of patches!

Which possible causes have you investigated and ruled out? What possible
causes have you been unable to check one way or the other?

If you ask questions about specific things which you cannot follow then
we may be able to point you in the right direction.
