[opensuse] Failed to load nvidia kernel module on Xen Kernel

Hi,

While running the default kernel on my OpenSuse 10.2 I have my nvidia graphics
card working with the nvidia libraries I have installed.

But when I reboot into a Xen Kernel, I get the error message saying:
"Failed to load nvidia kernel module" and I cannot start X. I know that it
means the X config says to use the nvidia drivers but the nvidia drivers are
not loaded into the Xen kernel.

Now my question is how can I load the nvidia drivers into the kernel? Do I
have to re-compile the Xen-kernel to do so? Or is it just a matter of loading
the drivers through a command?

I don't want to disable the nvidia entry in the X config as I need the
graphics card to work properly to do my work.

cheers,
Jeffery
