I don't know what Linode is running on their Host. I didn't see it mentioned earlier in this thread and admit I didn't research available documentation or email Linode to determine what is used.
Are you saying that it should not matter what method the HostOS is implementing Xen, an openSUSE Xen Guest using kernel-default will already include and use pv drivers and should work? I can imagine this would be the case if implementations are not significant, the only important thing is a common interface between Xen Host and Xen Guest. But if the above statement is correct, then it deepens the mystery (possibly requires deeper inspection) why kernel-xen was required by the OP's Guest and kernel-default fails. I wrote my Forum post based on the evidence presented by the OP in the first post what worked and what didn't.
