Not that this isn't when qemu-trad was disabled in the Debian packaging, just switching the mechanism by which it is disabled to one supporte dby upstream. > has there been any movement upstream to > add support for gfx_passthru in what is known as the 'qemu-xen' > device-model?

I'm not following very closely, so I don't know the exact state, but someone from Intel has been posting patches against upstream qemu and the Xen tools to enable gfx passthru with upstream qemu in the last few of weeks (check the upstream xen-devel archives), I would expect them to land in Xen 4.6, but I don't know what their exact scope is (i.e. if they are Intel GPU specific etc, I don't know).
