[Xen-users] Newer kernel with dom0 support?

[Christoph Geißinger <geissinger@xxxxxx>]

I'm currently very frustrated with xen. To describe my problems I want
to describe my goal.
(maybe I'm on the wrong way with my ideas or there is a simpler solution
a la the 2.6.25 kernel will have dom0 support *doh* ;-) ) 

Goal:
My goal is to have linux running and on one of the linux desktops there
should be a windows operating system. I intend to have hibernating
support because all this stuff takes loads of time to load and some
cryptography support (about this I haven't cared so far at all).
As I want to install a fglrx kernel module I need a kernel build
environment.

Problem:
It is possible without problems to build domU kernels with all the
requirements I have. But  for the dom0 kernel as a 2.6.18 I see
problems. (e.g. hibernating does not work there).

Solution?? 
I'd be very happy if someone could point me a way to accomplish this. I
already have problems with what I would think is the very first step to
do this:
Patch the 2.6.18 dom0 kernel so it gets a higher version. 
There are some kernel patches from redhat for dom0 kernels. (I've been
told that they are here:
http://git.et.redhat.com/?p=linux-2.6-dom0-pvops.git;a=summary )
Is this correct? Do I have a kernel build environment for my fglrx then?
How does it work? 

Thanks in advance!
