Kernel sources should be in the source ISO you can find on the main XCP
download page. However the kernel devel package, are you mention, should
be sufficient for driver module building.

That should work assuming the kernel devel package was the right version
and you built on 32 bit to match dom0. Please could you retry the
modprobe and then run dmesg to see if the kernel said what the problem was.

You did use kernel-xen-devel-2.6.32.43-0.4.1.xs1.6.10.734.170748.i686.rpm,
right? That's from the "Binary Package" ISO from the XCP downloads (it's
slightly confusingly listed under "Source Distribution").
