[Fedora-xen] Are 64bit Intel Core 2 Quad fedora 8 supported?

[George Refseth]

It seems I got little attention with my original post.
The f8 64bit image hangs when starting X. Prior to that
the visual 'wait' circle keeps running around irregularily
at a lot than normal speed.

I observed the same on multi core AMD running RHEL 4, which
was cured with RHEL 5. So no I am happy on that multi-core
workstation.

But this new server I was trying to set up had definite problems
with the -21 xen kernel. It runs flawlessly with the f8 release
kernel (-23).

For testing, where should I pull down a newer xen-kernel that would
run with a full 64 bit f8 install? I would be happy to be a guinea pig
(as long as I can revert) using this system if I could be pointed to
repositories and forum where I could contribute..

thanks in advance,
George
