Just bisected the tree, and i found out, that it's not because of Xen,
since even 19607 (which worked for me last time) didn't work. I tried
to play a little bit with some of the BIOS settings, but it didn't
help.
It looks like it's some kind of an hardware problem, which causes the
whole machine to freeze, when trying to work with the IOMMU. Any
suggestions on what to do next? to whom should i send this
information?
