I've tried to get this working last week with VMWare Workstation
5.0.0. It does, somewhat... Unfortunately the dom0's networking breaks
down (meaning the dom0 doesn't respond to any packet, not even to ARP
requests, but tcpdump on the dom0 still shows that packets are received,
just not answered) as soon as I start xend, and I don't have a clue
why. I've copied the installation over to a "normal" PC and there the
problem doesn't exist.

I'm on Debian Sarge here with Xen 3.0 and the 2.6.12 dom0 kernel. As I
said, booting works, starting a domU works, but networking doesn't.
