That's my guess on what's going wrong. Try setting "dom0_mem=256M" on the "kernel=.../xen.gz ..." line in your /boot/grub/grub.conf (or menu.lst)...
Set the meomry to 256 Mb. Now it doesn't complain about 'Cannot allocate memory', but doesn't run either. Anyway now I get the same behavior as when I first tried  the xen thing. The log says that a shutdown without a reason was caught, and the domain shuts down immediately after it is created. Attached is the output of the log. qemu-dm just logs a normal startup.
Well, yes I meant frequency scaling. I know that it doesn't work under xen, and I understand that it would be hard to implement it, but it doesn't work under a non xen kernel either. Thats what I'm worried about. 
 
 
Hmm - it should do, unless the BIOS is "broken". I wouldn't think it's related to your above problems tho'. Is there any powernow or cpufreq messages in dmesg?

grep -i powernow /var/log/syslog:

Nov  7 19:21:26 fogaz kernel: ACPI: SSDT (v001 PTLTD  POWERNOW 0x00000001  LTP 0x00000001) @ 0x000000003fefb2c0


the strange thing is that /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpufreq (or whatever it should be) is not created. The directory just shows the cache/ and whith smp-kernel the topology/ dir.

Looking at the past bios update changolog for different asus m2n boards there often says something about a fix for the cpufrequency staff. I guess that Asus hasnÄt fixed their problem in the bios for my Board.

Thanks for your replays so far, Mats.
