Re: [Xen-users] HVM falls back to qemu emulation while VMX is enabled (Xen 3.1)

I've briefly tried xen/xend 3.2 on the machine. If I used the

xend-3.0, I get them back:

Not that it helps with your problem, but not seeing vmx in
/proc/cpuinfo is normal for newer versions of Xen, after all Linux
cannot use the vmx feature as it is already being used by the Xen
hypervisor, so it is logical that the feature is no longer listed.

At least it's good to know there is nothing inherently wrong with that xen-3.2 hypervisor then, although the end result on that hypervisor was the same (cpu of the guest got fully emulated, slower than booting GEOS on my C64).
