Description Stephen Tweedie 2006-12-01 15:59:18 UTC
Cloning kernel-xen bug for xen userland component.

+++ This bug was initially created as a clone of Bug #218048 +++

Description of problem:
paravirt framebuffer has had various changes since FC-6 before being accepted
upstream; we need to ship RHEL-5 GA with the final upstream framebuffer protocol
between guests and dom0, and to add the necessary compatibility with the FC-6
framebuffer.
