When your in the make menuconfig screen, under Device Drivers select the same as mine, * is for static compile where M is to be used as a module.
Xm is based on python which is being depreciated.

Do you have any tutorial/hint on how to statically compile it?
And is there any reason it won't just work out of the box?
I've tried this on CentOs 5 too, but the same errors occur there..
And what exactly is the difference between xm and xl?

Statically compile the XEN stuff rather than using it as modules, I had the same grief as you but went away after doing that.
Also xm commands do not work for some reason but xl works fine.

Seems like part of my e-mail was lost, here is the rest...
--
At first, when running "xm list", I received this error:
"ImportError: No module named xen.xm"
I saw that /usr/lib/python2.6/site-packages/xen wasn't in sys.path of Python, so I symlinked it to /usr/lib/python2.6/xen - problem solved
Then I received this error:
Error: Unable to connect to xend: No such file or directory. Is xend running?
So I try starting xend:
xencommons should be started first.
So I try starting xencommons:
grep: /proc/xen/capabilities: No such file or directory
A thread on this mailing list suggested I added "none /proc/xen xenfs defaults 0 0" to /etc/fstab
I've done so, rebooted, but the issue persisted.
Another thread suggested I ran 'insmod xen-evtchn' and 'modprobe xen-evtchn', which gave me this error:
FATAL: Error inserting xen_evtchn (/lib/modules/2.6.32-5-xen-amd64/kernel/drivers/xen/xen-evtchn.ko): No such device
And now I'm rather stuck. What am I doing wrong?

I installed Debian Squeeze 6.0 on a server and am now trying to install Xen 4.1.0 on it (compiled from source, since the packages don't include Remus support).
Here are the steps I did to install it and get around several errors.
1) Installed Debian Squeeze 6.0 with default options and software RAID 1
2) Installed the dom0 kernel for Debian as shown at http://wiki.xensource.com/xenwiki/XenDom0Kernels
3) Rebooted into the kernel and made sure it was running:
Linux node1 2.6.32-5-xen-amd64 #1 SMP Thu May 19 01:16:47 UTC 2011 x86_64 GNU/Linux
4) Installed the requirements for compiling:
apt-get install zlib1g-dev python-dev libncurses-dev uuid-dev python-dev libncurses-dev libssl-dev xorg-dev uuid-dev build-essential gcc g++ gettext bcc iasl latex2rtf-doc gcc g++ build-essential
5) Downloaded the 4.1.0 source, untarred it and ran "make world"
6) No errors except a warning about latex for documentation, so I ran "make install"
7) Rebooted again
At first, when running "xm list", I received this error:
