I use Xen 3.1-1 and Kernel 2.6.18-5 (dom0). The machine is a Intel Core
2 Duo 1,86 Ghz with VT ( i get the flag via /proc/cpuinfo).
I installed the Packages not from Source. I installed them via apt
(Debian package tool).
Xend is started and so on...Everything looks fine. Here the
configuration File from the hvm:

kernel = 'hvmloader'
builder = 'hvm'
name= 'winxp'
acpi = 0
vncviewer = 1
keymap = 'de'
disk    = [ 'file:/etc/xen/domains/windows/winxp.disk,ioemu:hda,w']
cdrom = '/dev/cdrom'
boot = 'd'
vif  = [ 'type=ioemu' ]
device_model = '/usr/lib/xen/bin/qemu-dm'

Any suggestions?

Regards
Alexandros
