I was running in userspace to quickly get something up and running. Also I didn't have the dom0 kernel code when I first started with Open vSwitch. Hence when I ran "./configure --with-l26=/lib/modules/2.6.26-2-xen-686/build" i got an error saying that the build directory was missing. I am going to take your suggestion and use the kernel module. I downloaded the header for 2.6.26-2-xen-686, but I need to figure out how to link it to the kernel and have a build folder.
