Xen users - Aug 2008 - Still trying to run hvm (Invalid mode)

I''m still trying to run winxp on xen. This time, installed a fresh
debian-amd64 stable version (see dpkg-l attached). When I run xm
create winxp.cfg, I got the message "Error: Invalid mode".
I''ve
attached all the files I think could be useful to debug the problem.

Googling I''ve found some posts saying problems with asus_acpi module
and during boot process dmesg complains about loading an acpi module.
How should I disable acpi module and give a try without it?

regards,

Please provide the Xen log (/var/log/xen/xend.log).

You really should install security updates.

It was included in the original message, but here it goes again

Why? Could it be the reason of the error?

I''ve installed debian etch and still trying to run an hvm winxp, but
the Invalid mode error continues. How can I fix this?

deb0:~# xm create -c winxp.cfg
Using config file "/etc/xen/winxp.cfg".
Error: Invalid mode

I have attached xend.log; xen-hotplug.log is empty and xend-debug.log
has only info about dhcp. Any help would be appreciated, I haven''t
found any hint about how to solve this issue on the web.
