Why Suse's Xen 4.0 package doesn't satisfy you ?
"Kotd" kernel works fine under 4.0 :

If you do need build 4.0.1, XenWiki has instructions for F13 , Ubuntu 10.04 Server.
If you want 2.6.34.1 with forward ported patches aka Suse :-
http://code.google.com/u/andrew.lyon/updates
I am hesitant about build Xen from source on
Suse. It's too close MicroSoft :)

I have opensuse 11.3 with kotd kernel now installed on my W510 laptop. I am trying to recompile the xen4-testing.hg source to try out 4.0.1rc5.
I've added the c/c++ patterns and dev86 packages. Then
"make xen" works. Calling "make tools" bombs out in two places:
a) can't find: stub-32.h header file at /usr/src/gnu/
b) can't find: /usr/include/bits/predef.h
Can anyone point me to a set of instructions for opensuse 11.3 build of XEN source? The XEN 4.0 source wiki instructions worked fine with Ubuntu. Not the case with opensuse. ;o(

Michael,
I will update bug also. I am not a Suse's expert, but Jan Beulich is out of office until 08/05/2010. Looks like kernel at page i mentioned bellow has Jan's patch already applied and works with udev 157 on 11.3. This page seems to be updated on daily basis. I just downloaded current xen-kernel. Installed Xen host from DVD and installed new kernel :-
# rpm -ivh kernel-xen-2.6.34.1-0.0.17.fdda44d.x86_64.rpm
Grub entry would be created automatically. Reloaded system works fine:-
1.
virt-install to
create PV or HVM DomU
2. virt-manager to manage PV or HVM DomU
I cannot issue any waranty until Jan will confirm , that kernel is OK with udev 157
Boris.

Hi Boris,
Does this thread address the problems I've seen in this bug-thread? That is: hot-scripts not working issue? How can we (the end-users) track where or when this
may be
included in a kernel for opensuse 11.3?
https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=612006
FWIW I added your latest comments to this bug in case.
Mike.

I see this bug in 11.3 final with udev 157, e.g. attempt to install 11.3 PV DomU
at 11.3 Dom0
("Hotplug scripts not working"). If patch exists and 2.6.34-12-xen
may be patched, how to proceed ?
Boris.
P.S Downgrade to 151 works for PV Guests (for me), but not for HVM.
