No problem. Here it goes:

Example:

\documentclass{article}
\usepackage{pstricks}
\begin{document}
\begin{pspicture}(0,0)(2,2)
\psline(0,0)(1,1)
\end{pspicture}
\end{document}

The pdf contains the page number but no picture.

The xetex-pstricks.con begins with

%% BEGIN: pstricks.con (for xdvipdfmx driver)
%%
%% Configuration file
for PSTricks 97
%%
%% Version 97 patch 2 (1997/04/28)
%%
%% For use with
xdvipdfmx
