I've tried it with the 2.6.30-50 patches and your config, with
hypervisor 3.3.0, 3.3.1, 3.4.0, 3.4.1-rc6, and also with suse kernel
2.6.30-53.
None of those options work on my system. Only working configs I've
found so far is:
2.6.27.26-6.1 from a suse src.rpm (however didn't support the version
of ext4 on my hard drive)
2.6.29.6-xen.aka.suse-xenified-2.6.29-62.1-rebased.patches.by.andrew.lyon
w/ hypervisor 3.3 and 3.4
2.6-xen.pv_ops by jeremy w/ hypervisor 3.4.0 and 3.4.1-rc6
I also tried 2.6.18-157.el5 but couldn't get it to build. It is meant
to support the current version of ext4.
It's curious that nvidia drivers worked for andrew lyon in this
