I have made an bug report to novell: bug-id: 260670

This is the comment of one of the maintainers:

Full virtualization was not supported in openSUSE 10.2, so I am lowering 
the
severity.  The keyboard issue is being investigated for SLES 10 SP1 and
openSUSE 10.3.

The strange thing is, that we have it run on other hardware. I fear, that 
the ATI Driver is the problem; I will check that. But removing it to get 
XEN to work would be a bad solution. The ATI card without teh ATI driver 
is terrible slow.
