I'd like to have xen on my Desktop machine, which has 4GB of RAM. The nv
driver doesn't really work with the card in my machine when using 2
monitors.

But: Don't even bother to test, the nvidia driver does not work with a
xen kernel. There have been patches floating around, which lead to a
very unstable system.

Cheers,

Ralph
