I don't know about Xen but qemu works very fine, especially if you have a
somewhat new processor (1 year or so) with the virtualization extensions
(both intel and amd), if so you can use kernel's built-in kvm module and
qemu-kvm. More here:

Note that you don't need kvm-modules package anymore as the kvm modules are
already in kernel.
