If you have no experience openSUSE makes installing Xen simple.  Just select it 
from YaST or during the initial install.  openSUSE is currently at version 
3.4.1.  It's not the latest but it's newer than Ubuntu or Centos stock 
installs.  You didn't say what hardware you have, if it's a 64 bit machine 
Centos is probably easiest to get a Xen 4 version running.  Just check the wiki 
or the list archives as this has been discussed often in the past.

Good Luck,
Dana
