Thank you very much Ryan,

you are totally right. They changed it in version 3.0.3.

I added vncviewer=1 and sdl=1 to my configfile and started the domain
again.

Then I automatically I got vncviewer running my WinXP install screen.
After formatting the image and so on Windows want's to reboot.

Since then I don't have connection to the domain.

I posted my netstat -l output here because I just can't find the port:

My logs don't show anything regarding vnc.
Here is the output of the most recent qemu-log:
*************************************************
domid: 7
qemu: the number of cpus is 1
shared page at pfn:1ffff, mfn: 1d24b
buffered io page at pfn:1fffd, mfn: 1d24d
*************************************************

Here I posted the last couple of lines from the xend.log file.
