Hello to everybody!

I did read, that Lguest and Xen was merged to upstream and must be in 2.6.23-rc1 kernel, but I can't see it in "make menuconfig". So, what's the deal? Can anybody explain me, how to enable XEN support? Thanks.

Go to "Processor type and features" - then enable "Paravirtualization
support (EXPERIMENTAL)", you'll get a new option called "Enable
support for Xen hypervisor".

Sounds good, just ensure you carry PARAVIRT's dependencies to those who
"select" it too, somehow, otherwise invalid .config's could result.

Perhaps it would be clearer to make CONFIG_PARAVIRT implicit.
As in Xen/vmi/lguest being one level higher and selecting paravirt 
implicitely. Unless someone has a good reason against that i'll
do that.
