[Xen-users] Check if VT is enabled

["Daniel Waterbly" <dwaterbly@xxxxxxxxx>]

Hello group,

I recently purchased an HP m7360n computer which has an Intel Pentium D 920 processor in it. Unfortunately there is no BIOS option to enable or disable VT.  The board it sits on uses the Intel 945P chipset.

If I am in linux and do a 'cat /proc/cpuinfo' I get this:
[root@localhost ia32]# cat /proc/cpuinfo

Notice that it detects vmx, which is Intel's VT.

My question is: Is there any way to tell if xen is using VT or to see if it is even accessible?  I really would like to get xen working in one way or another and would much like to use VT with it.

Thanks,
Dan
