Im still working on my configuration on a G5 (DL 360 - 2x Intel XEON 5440 QC - 
64bit / amd64 Gentoo - which should be very similiar in the driver 
requirements) but it still worked for me over several days under load:
http://ftp.syndicat.com/pub/xen/tmp/config-2.6.31-xen-r11newsys

This is a 2.6.31-xen-r11 one - in the current im migrating to 2.6.32 for 
further productional use.

I'm able to boot XEN, use the KVM (USB HID) and to start several DomUs with 
that (without HVM - don't need it).

There might be still suboptimal settings for some reasons (i.e. udev 
compatibility etc.). If you are interested i will held you updated with 
further changes within this config.

If you find some improvements on your side it would be nice to hear from you.


...good luck.
best regards,


Niels.
