I am going to give you a short report in 1.5 weeks (approx.) about a X2
if they do "HVM". :)

If Xen is Pacifica-enabled, it _shall_ work because the processors are.
However, if this doesn't work, it'll propably be a coding problem.
Its sad that I don't want to have one of the cheaper AM2-Socket A64s -
they _are_ available already. Maybe someone can confirm on that?

However, a short note that there _are_ AMD processors that should work
would be a nice side note. - Next to the line that a detailed list is
coming soon. Right now its looking like "oh, well... dunno and I am not
interested." (No Offense.) Anyway, its your entry. :) (Kinda AMD-Fanboi
- felt like gebeing hurt when not being mentioned in detail *g*)

So expect a bunch of questions and a report within the next 2 weeks. :D

Regards, Bigfoot29
