addendum for release notes?

Hi,

It was brought up on irc that libvirt is currently broken with SDL
graphics.  (By default it uses vnc so you'd be forgiven for not having
noticed.) The relevant bug is

https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/qemu-kvm/+bug/615077

It was suggested that perhaps the maverick release notes should mention
something about this.  In particular, in order to use SDL, the
.Xauthority would need to be copied to a persistent location which
libvirt as access to, and the xml definition for the vm needs to be
updated to point to that location.

Comments?

thanks,
