Opensuse has 2.6.25.16-xen dom0 kernel, I have taken the xen-patches
from the suse kernel and applied them to
gentoo-sources-2.6.25-gentoo-r8 (2.6.25.15) running several windows
and linux hvm's with xen 3.2.1 ive not had any crashes or other
problems, I needed a newer kernel as 2.6.18 did not detect some of my
sata controllers.
