2013-06-19	Explain xen version differences.	gdt	1	-1/+2
	There are 5 versions of xen in pkgsrc, which is confusing. Explain in DESCR which version is in which package (xenkernel3 contains 3.1), and which versions support PCI passthrough (only 3.1). Explain which versions support non-PAE (3.1) and PAE (3.3, 4.1, 4.2), because the HOWTO is out of date and it's easy to end up with a non-working system on a 3.1 to 3.3 update. Cuation that 2.0 is beyond crufty. This is a DESCR-only change (with PKGREVISION++ of course). (ok during freeze agc@)
2005-10-13	Initial import of a package to retrieve the Xen kernel itself easily.	agc	1	-0/+11
	Xen is a virtual machine monitor for x86 hardware (runs only on i686-class CPUs), which supports running multiple guests operating systems on a single machine. Guest OSes (also called "domains") require a modified kernel which supports Xen hypercalls in replacement to access to the physical hardware. At boot, the xen kernel is loaded (via grub) along with the guest kernel for the first domain (called domain0). domain0 has privileges to access the physical hardware (PCI and ISA devices), administrate other domains and provide virtual devices (disks and network) to other domains. This package contains the Xen kernel itself.
