Yes. But from your /boot/grub/menu.lst it looks that you do have the xen-3.5.gz compiled? For details on how to do that look at the URL that Boris sent - it is pretty comprehensive. Also take a look at this (which Boris wrote as well): http://bderzhavets.wordpress.com/2009/08/31/loading-xen-via-grub2-on-top-ubuntu-karmic-server-alpha-4/ That explains how to setup the GRUB2 entry correctly. Boris, I am CC-ing you on this e-mail. Any suggestions on what else he might need to do?
