this keeps the remote mousepointer better in sync.


also check /etc/xen/xend-config.sxp

if you want to connect to your vnc, the server should listen on all interfaces

(vnc-listen '0.0.0.0')
the default is 127.0.0.1 for security reasons.

alternatively, install a vncviewer in your dom0 and connect via ssh -X to get
X11 forwarded.
