Hi all,

just a comment here, what I found is not "changing something to list an
explicit changeset", for me this was just a clue to understand the
problem.

In fact, when I study a little the xen patch really applied with the
kernel-xen0-2.6.18-1.2200.fc5, I discovered the patch is based on xen
3.0.3 which has totally different API than the one expected by the
xen-3.0.2 installed in FC5 at that time... What I do to fix the problem
is to find the really patch that should be applied (and it's based on
xen-3.0.2) and recompiled the kernel, and it was working.

So I think you should completly forget that kernel as it should has not
been released and it seems nobody is working on it in the CVS (maybe the
guy is on holidays after the release of FC6...) so be patient... I think
this would be fix in few days. (hope)

Best regards,

G. Bougard
