  Kernel been built on branch xen/stable-2.6.32.x checked out via JF's Git Repo does work with DRM enabled  under Xen 4.0-rc7 on F12. (Radeon HD 4650).  Appears to be 2.6.32.10 in meantime.
  How much sense does make using rpm's based kernel with "nomodeset"
option ?

Have previous versions of the xendom0 kernels worked successfully?

What is the grub.conf entry? Have you passed nomodeset to the kernel module?
