Hi Michael --

Thanks for the help!

They are definitely the same version as I cloned only xen-4.0-testing
and built/installed both on the test machine itself.

Yes, I think you are right.  I have always booted dom0 with 256M
on this box, but I guess more recent gnome tools are much more
bloated so that accounts for the swapping and slowness.

Yes, I did that.  This skips the graphics looping but xend
still fails to start (and I can no longer VNC to the box...
fortunately it is a laptop at least).

Thanks,
Dan
