I suspect you badly need to update your Dom0 kernel and Xen to use a 3.1 
kernel on the DomU.
Hmm. Considering that Fedora Core 3 is *dead, dead, dead*, and the 
Fedora Legacy project is also dead, and the last gasps of FC3 are the 
walking, lurching, zombies wandering around saying "b-r-a-i-n-s.......", 
I think perhaps you should update your base OS. FC7 is quite shiny and 
new, but if you have limited hardware, you could stay back at FC4 for now.
I overstate, but I've had recent pain migrating things off of Fedora 
Core 3 that were slowly decaying in place, and the mirror sites that 
still carry it are fast going offline.
