You would better address this request to Ubuntu guys :-)
http://www.howtoforge.com/high-performance-xen-on-ubuntu-8.04-amd64
Same schema would work on desktop as well:-

*******************
Todd''s sugestion:-
*******************
$ sudo /etc/init.d/network restart
$ sudo apt-get install ubuntu-xen-server
$ wget
http://downloads.howtoforge.com/ubuntu_8.04_server_xen_from_repositories/linux-headers-2.6.24-16-xen_2.6.24-16.30zng1_amd64.deb
$ wget
http://downloads.howtoforge.com/ubuntu_8.04_server_xen_from_repositories/linux-image-2.6.24-16-xen_2.6.24-16.30zng1_amd64.deb
$ sudo dpkg -i linux-headers-2.6.24-16-xen_2.6.24-16.30zng1_amd64.deb
linux-image-2.6.24-16-xen_2.6.24-16.30zng1_amd64.deb
At mean time just two commands would be enough (it''s patched already)
$ sudo /etc/init.d/network restart
$ sudo apt-get install ubuntu-xen-server

There are essentially two "mainstream" kernel branches - that which xen.orgmaintains based on 2.6.18-8, and the mainline 2.4.24+ which is the regular linux kernel. Because Xen patches were so cumbersome to maintain (and because there were all kinds of other variants of 2.6.18+ in various Linux distributions), RedHat spearheaded a development effort to incorporate the Xen patches into the mainline kernel. As you found out, those patches (called "pvops" or "paravirt ops") are only incorporated for the domU. With just a small bit of googling, I found this in relation to dom0 patches: http://www.nabble.com/Updated-dom0-pvops-for-2.6.24-available-on-git-td15091656.html It looks like no dev has taken place since February - not surprising. RH developers were trying to get Fedora 9 out the door so they abandoned the notion of dom0 support for FC9. The last report I read was that they''re shooting for dom0 stability in FC10 and hopefully mainline incorporation by then or soon thereafter (someone jump in and correct me if I''ve messed anything up).

Re: [Xen-users] how to build linux-2.6.24 above kernels to be dom0 ?
It''s possible to install packages mercurial, dev86,
python-virtinst and virt-viewer on F8 along with building Xen 3.2.1 from source
so, that virt-install as well as virt-manager appear to be completely
functional on Xen 3.2.1 F8 Dom0 (64-bit) and allow to create PV and
HVM guests like on enterprise class systems. Ofcourse, it''s driven
2.6.18-8 xen kernel.
Details may be viewed:-
http://lxer.com/module/newswire/view/103746/index.html
The reason , why i did it, is broken virt-install on Ubuntu 8.04 Xen
3.2 Server (Desktop) (amd64) . Ubuntu kernel 2.6.24-17-xen.

Looks like you going to compete fedora development team :-)
