Yesterday I upgraded to SLES11 SP1 (x86-64 - 2.6.32.12-0.7-xen - xen-4.0.0_21091_04-0.2.6). I was able to switch VGA mode of the kernel console/VTYs by editing /boot/grub/menu.lst: kernel /xen.gz vga=mode-0x31a module /vmlinuz-2.6.32.12-0.7-xen root=/dev/disk/by-id/dontcare-part2 vga=0x10c module /initrd-2.6.32.12-0.7-xen However, the new xen kernel unconditionally switches to graphical mode and thus, scrolling is impossibly slow on VTY's and I can make the splash screen entirely dissappear by issuing splash=native, but then in still switches to graphical mode, just showing black background. VGA mode swithing stil works with the default (non xen) kernel.
