I have found it very difficult to set up using YAST.

Now, on to figuring out how to use XEN. My co-worker with SLED and
openSUSE systems says XEN runs XP faster than VMWare.


This is unlikely because:
a) to run XP Xen uses Full-virtualization via Vanderpool, which is
slower than VMware. Xen cannot use para-virtualization in this case.
b) VMware 6 also has para-virtual capabilities.

Also, There is VirtualBox, which delivers the fastest ever XP
experience. Try it.

Thank you both. I seem to have installed the NVidia driver via this link:

It seems to behave much nicer now. Also I get this cool NVIDIA splash
right before X starts.

Hopefully I can say, SOLVED!

Now, on to figuring out how to use XEN. My co-worker with SLED and
openSUSE systems says XEN runs XP faster than VMWare.
