The question is now what do I do to use = this new, patched hypervisor, I mean, how do I put in production? A = simple reboot? Please advise.

I have not compiled anything from sources. > Federico I believe the proper sequence is: download the SLES10 SDK iso from you Novell support account: SLE-10-SP2-SDK-DVD-x86_64-GM-DVD1.iso Add this ISO as a yast installation source. install the xen-3.2.0_16718_14-0.4.src.rpm rpm via yast or: # rpm -i xen-3.2.0_16718_14-0.4.src.rpm Note that this is the .src.rpm not the binary rpm. Prep the source tree using: # rpmbuild -bc /usr/src/packages/SPECS/xen.spec This should build, patch and compile the package. If it fails due to = dependencies, add the missing RPMs using yast. Once it succeeds, apply the attached patch (I attached the wrong one = previously): # cd /usr/src/packages/BUILD/xen-3.2-testing # patch -p0 < ~/xen-vioapic-callback-routing.patch Build the hypervisor: # cd /usr/src/packages/BUILD/xen-3.2-testing # make xen try out the resulting xen/xen.gz manually.
