The following kernels work: linux-image-2.6.18-3-amd64 2.6.18-7 linux-image-2.6.18-3-vserver-amd64 2.6.18-7 linux-image-2.6.18-4-amd64 2.6.18.dfsg.1-12etch2 linux-image-2.6.18-4-vserver-amd64 2.6.18.dfsg.1-12etch2 linux-image-2.6.18-4-xen-vserver-amd64 2.6.18.dfsg.1-12etch2 linux-image-2.6.18-6-xen-vserver-amd64 2.6.18.dfsg.1-23etch1 linux-image-2.6.26-bpo.1-xen-amd64 2.6.26-12~bpo40+1 The following kernels don't: linux-image-2.6.18-6-amd64 2.6.18.dfsg.1-23etch1 linux-image-2.6.18-6-vserver-amd64 2.6.18.dfsg.1-23etch1 linux-image-2.6.22-3-amd64 2.6.22-6~bpo40+1 linux-image-2.6.22-3-vserver-amd64 2.6.22-6~bpo40+1 linux-image-2.6.23-1-amd64 2.6.23-2 linux-image-2.6.24-etchnhalf.1-amd64 2.6.24-6~etchnhalf.7 linux-image-2.6.24-rc6-amd64 2.6.24~rc6-1~experimental.1~snapshot.10030 linux-image-2.6.24-rc7-amd64 2.6.24~rc7-1~experimental.1~snapshot.10109 linux-image-2.6.24-rc8-amd64 2.6.24~rc8-1~experimental.2~snapshot.10176 linux-image-2.6.26-bpo.1-amd64 2.6.26-12~bpo40+1 linux-image-2.6.26-bpo.1-vserver-amd64 2.6.26-12~bpo40+1 I'm no expert, but i can't help but think that there is a bug in this model of the Intel 965G/ICH8 chipset that the normal kernel is exercising (due to a change that happened at 2.6.18-4) but Xen is not, due to different behaviour of the AGP or MM subsystem.
