Thanks for your help. I finally got it working, so maybe this may interest some 
people:
------------------------------------------------------------------------
name = "sles10_64_test"
memory = "512"

disk = [ 'tap:aio:/var/lib/xen/images/sles10_64_test,hda,w', ]
vif = [ 'mac=00:16:3e:4a:f5:f0, bridge=eth0', ]
vfb = [ 'type=vnc,vncunused=1' ]
uuid = "b1fd65e84128ced2dc435bb9d2e1861e"
bootloader = "/usr/bin/pygrub"
kernel = "/boot/vmlinuz-xen"
ramdisk = "/boot/initrd-xen"

vcpus=1
on_reboot   = 'restart'
on_crash    = 'restart'
------------------------------------------------------------------------

The only thing which is missing is the VNC console. Does SLES 10 not support it?
