Hello all,
I am running into a problem with my xen installation. So far I have:
- installed 11.4 64bit
- installed hypervisor and tools (I created br0)
- boot into xen kernel
- run a zypper update
My current configuration is:
Linux linux-c7sq 2.6.37.6-0.7-xen #1 SMP 2011-07-21 02:17:24 +0200 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux
using patterns-openSUSE-xen_server-11.4-6.9.1.x86_64:
- bridge-utils-1.4-63.1.x86_64
- xen-doc-html-4.0.2_02-4.9.2.x86_64
- xen-doc-html-4.0.2_02-4.9.2.x86_64

My menu list contains these lines:

and I’m sure I booted into the correct kernel. After all this, here’s the problem. When starting xend, I find the following in the logs:

Does anyone have the same problem? There was nothing on google on this, and the xs_handle cannot be debugged as xs.so isn’t visible to me 
Thanks in advance for any pointers.
