... and still no dom0 official support for a kernel > 2.6.18 or I'm wrong? In these conditions Xen is doomed on any new hardware.

In the long run it is doomed anyway. Debian based distros will stop shipping it and Red Hat seems to prefer KVM at the moment. So only Novell is a real supporter, but they also ship KVM with all new products.
If you don't need PCI pass through KVM is the right choice for all new installations.

You mean "for new installations on new hardware", I guess. Some of us don't have the VT/whatever extensions, and would still like some good virtualization.

We'll have PCI pass through support in the 2.6.28-ish time frame. The kernel bits are in place, we just need to do some cleanup on the userspace bits.

Is there any work on USB?

USB assignment is already well supported in kvm.

Can you get a console on a KVM guest without running VNC? xm is a fantastic command-line management tool for Xen domUs; does libvirt provide comparable command-line functionality for KVM guests?
I used to run KVM, but switched to Xen primarily due to the lack of good remote management tools for KVM. I'd prefer to run KVM and would be happy to switch back if its command-line tools have caught up to Xen's.
Sill 2.6.18.... Posted Aug 28, 2008 12:14 UTC (Thu) by lbt (subscriber, #29672) [Link]
If I'm not mistaken Xen dom0 is expected circa 2.6.29
AFAIK Jeremy Fitzhardinge is the man doing a lot of the work (Thanks!!)
