You probably don't have USB support compiled in. If you enable USB support
your xen0 kernel, it should work fine.

Basically less. Technically, we call a "virtual machine" the persistent
entity with configuration, virtual disks, etc. We call a *running* virtual
machine a domain. This is like the distinction between programs and
processes that many OSs have.

There's some guidelines on porting OSs in the interface manual. Note however
that only the operating system kernel needs modification - this has been done
already for Linux 2.4 / 2.6, NetBSD, FreeBSD and Plan 9.
