no, not without extra patches at least. search the forum to see how others faired with it.

as (limited) domU support was added to mainline, i tried to accomodate it in PaX, but i don't actually know if it works. otherwise search the forum, the same guys doing the dom0 experiment have also done work there i think.

Thank's for the reply. Do you have an idea what I am doing wrong, because "Search for keywords": xen
does not deliver any hints with the stirng "xen" (but there are forum entries which do contain the string xen).

Thank you!

Try searching for xen*, since the search feature doesn't allow you to search for things with less than 4 characters.
