It's been a few months since I've used Xen, but I'm pretty sure that by
default the domU's will keep their time synced with the dom0, so you
really don't need ntpd running in the guest. Just go ahead and kill it
and see if it helps. Having your time always be accurate to a few
milliseconds is certainly nice but it is by no means a necessity for a
working system.
