This is in my xm dmesg:
(XEN) HVM: VMX enabled
(XEN) VMX: MSR intercept bitmap enabled
(XEN) CPU0: Intel(R) Xeon(R) CPU           E5430  @ 2.66GHz stepping 06

And in my xm info:
xen_caps               : xen-3.0-x86_64 xen-3.0-x86_32p hvm-3.0-x86_32
hvm-3.0-x86_32p hvm-3.0-x86_64

Note that VMX support might be disabled by the BIOS.
