I don't know what Linode is running on their Host. I didn't see it
mentioned earlier in this thread and admit I didn't research available
documentation or email Linode to determine what is used.
Are you saying that it should not matter what method the HostOS is
implementing Xen, an openSUSE Xen Guest using kernel-default will
already include and use pv drivers and should work? I can imagine this
would be the case if implementations are not significant, the only
important thing is a common interface between Xen Host and Xen Guest.
But if the above statement is correct, then it deepens the mystery
(possibly requires deeper inspection) why kernel-xen was required by
the OP's Guest and kernel-default fails.
I wrote my Forum post based on the evidence presented by the OP in the
first post what worked and what didn't.

Thx all, Yes, it does look then like kernel-xen is required for both Dom0 and DomU for the kernels openSUSE/SUSE currently provides.
It is not required and shouldn't be used in Xen HVM domU. HVM domUs, like KVM domains, use kernel-default + pv drivers.
