My Xen server died last night (direct lightening hit) and I need to replace it.

I'm thinking of getting a core i3 CPU on an H55 motherboard (with integrated graphics) - not sure which motherboard yet.

I've been running Xen 3.4.2 (built from source) with the default 2.6.18 kernel for dom0 and some domUs. Given how new this hardware is, will I be able to run 2.6.18 on it? I need video support too (X11).

If 2.6.18 isn't up to it, is the xen.git version able to run on this hardware? My dom0 OS is Debian, and I'd like to stick with this distro. I'm happy to keep building from source. I don't mind running xen.git/xen-unstable if I have to, so long as it's mostly stable.

Thanks,
Yasir
