Hi Mike
Did you use some Xen specific driver in the image? If so, that's a problem...
You can post dmesg here also.
>From the description above, I think you are using KVM distributed by Ubuntu? I
checked KVM version from Ubuntu upstream, seems it's kvm-72, and now it's
kvm-82... You can refer to http://kvm.qumranet.com/kvmwiki/HOWTO1 to try new
KVM release.
