Yes, this did the trick and I really appreciate the lists support in helping me with the issue. Did I miss this "known issue" somewhere in the faqs, docs, wiki? If so, please excuse me. If not, perhaps it would be wise for us to cover hardware-specific issues like this on the wiki.

Thoughts?

Best,
Adam

Is anyone running Xen on this hardware? Is it stable?


I have two 1850s running Xen. They're exactly the same as 2850 except
for the 1U chassis. Both Xen2-testing and Xen-unstable seem to be
running just fine.

Dell systems have a known issue with the on-board USB controller,
which is a piece of crap. Disabling USB from BIOS or just leaving out
USB support from your xen0 kernel will improve stability a lot.
