Do you get any errors in the dom0 kernel dmesg? Or in Xen hypervisor 
dmesg/logs? 

All the drivers load correctly?

Try these commands:

dmesg
xm dmesg
xm log

Also add "loglvl=all guest_loglvl=all" parameters for xen-3.4.1.gz.

You might also want to add "dom0_mem=2G" for xen-3.4.1.gz. 
Or something that is less than 4G..  just in case there's some 32bit 
counter/variable bug.
