   它的作用就相当于qemu-dm,Xen-unstable里现在编译的仍然是老的qemu(即qemu-dm)
   upstram-xen-qemu 需要你去下载,单独编译,方法看spice4xen站点

   现在upstream-xen-qemu可以正常启动windows?
   根据你描述的情况,应该是upstream-xen-qemu的移植工作仍然没完成(可能存在两个问题:vga dirty bitmap; 电源管理)
   我们的spice4xen发布时, upstream-xen-qemu启动windows后会挂掉
   spice4xen对于upstream-xen-qemu当时测试的是没有无图形的Linux,spice可以正常连接并使用

   虚拟机关掉图形,不是本地(host)机

  要想用图形界面的,使用spice4xen for xen4.0.1没有问题

帮忙解答下问题,多谢。

  其实你只是想玩虚拟化的话
  kvm足够了,它的hvm性能跟xen不相上下
  要玩kvm,你的处理器需要支持vt-x(对于intel)
  你说不够流畅,我怀疑你玩的是qemu而不是kvm
  另外spice可以在qemu和kvm上用,对于kvm很流畅
