and here I thought I fixed that. Hmm, I think I did. How old is your xen 
lashup?


anyway, let me know if you are on an old version -- I had a bug in the 
idle code, or a misunderstanding really -- and I did fix that. Fix is on 
sources.

That said, Xen does NOT do ACPI. Xen 2.0 laptops run hot. This is fixed in 
3.0, I think.
