What is the crash (serial log please)? How much memory do you have initially?
Does it crash if you have 'dom0_mem=max:2G' on your Xen hypervisor line?
Does it crash if you use 'xl mem-set 0 1024'?

xm mem-set 0 1536
worked fine for me.
(My KDE workstation, so 1024 is too little RAM to do day-job :-)

You previously said crash - which is it? They are two different things.
Did you wait a fair amount of time?
Check for disk activity? It may just need some swapping...
also virt-manager doesn't recognize it as dom0, I see some
messages in log
[ 22.531841] XENBUS: Unable to read cpu state
[ 22.531981] XENBUS: Unable to read cpu state
[ 22.532213] XENBUS: Unable to read cpu state
[ 22.532350] XENBUS: Unable to read cpu state
virt-manager does not log to messages, so those two things are unrelated.
What happens when you try virt-manager?
What is in /root/.virt-manager/virt-manager.log?

Ok, did 'xl list' show a new value? What does this command give you:
find /sys -name target_kb | xargs cat
> [root@localhost ~]#
>

Why?Did it crash? Was it running to slow? If you ran:
while (true)
do
xl list | grep Domain-0
done
Did you see the numbers go up/down? Can you be more specific please?

Hm, as in.. you can't see Xen in it? If so, we need to rope in the
Xen libvirt expert from Novell. Can you send another email with details
and I will (once I recall his name) CC him.

Ok, those are a different issue - and you can ignore that.

Ok, so 3.6GB at start.
while (true)
do
xl list | grep Domain-0
done
I am able to see the numbers going down, and after some time stop.(freeze)
And ... how low?

So I did the same test on my 4GB box and found out that 'xm mem-set 0 1024'
xend helpfully (<sarcasm>) decreased the memory to 214MB. Which will definitly
cause
head-ache for programs.
