Thanks for your answer.

I need to compile my own kernel because with the default Debian xen 
stuff I've got issues with my video driver (xorg) and other stuff,
I used to have gentoo a week ago, but got some issued that leaded me to 
switch to anoother distro, I opted for  debian,  the reasons  are out of 
scope.
Silly me,  did no download the xen source code!!! too much work  need 
some coffee!! maybe some rest.!
Lotta thanks to shade some light on this and for your time and support-
Best Regards
