I am on a virtual machine (it's a virtual dedicated server).
I have performed a standard dist upgrade, but my provider isn't giving
me the possibility to upgrade the kernel. It's a mess.
Why Xen? No idea. That's simply what uname -a says me.

Well, I assume I got to ask my provider
for any information.
