vncconsole vs vncviewer, videoram vs vram

Hi,

In Xen unstable tools/python/xen/xm/create.py, what is the difference
between vncconsole and vncviewer? vncconsole was deprecated in Xen 3.3,
but subsequently patched into Xen unstable again. This seems to make
vncviewer redundant. Should they be unified?

Also, in XCI's tools/python/xen/xm/create.py, the vram option seems
equivalent to videoram. Can someone confirm this, and should these two
options be unified as well?

Thanks!

Cheers,
Beng Heng, Ng

If the vram option name is still lingering in XCI it's likely a leftover of
XCI merging an early out-of-tree version of my LFB & high-res modes patch
for stdvga. The patch is now in mainline with the option being "videoram"
instead of vram.
