Hey guys, when I try to boot into xen, x fails. Now I know this is due to the nvidia drivers, but is there a workaround?...

    Try using "vesa" as video driver (in /etc/X11/xorg.conf).

    Edit: also try killing running GDM instances. It may actually start X after that (I've experienced that today with ATI card):
