When attempting to install a rawhide paravirtualized guest with Xen, anaconda
detects the Xen framebuffer & tries to start X, but it fails & has to carry on
in text mode.

How reproducible:
Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1.   virt-install --name f7pv \
         --ram 500 \
         --file=/var/lib/xen/images/f7pv.img \
         --file-size 5 \
         --vnc \
         --location
http://download.fedora.devel.redhat.com/pub/fedora/linux/core/development/x86_64/os/
\ 
         --paravirt
