[Qemu-devel] [Bug 998435] Re: qemu-kvm-spice doesn't support spice/qxl installs

[Boris Derzhavets]

Alon,

 I  tested    F16 and W7.   Installs attempted  via VIrtManager  (spice/qx l, 
spice/vga)  poped  up  black screen for ever.
F17 (beta) requires several minutes to activate SPICE/QXL install window, and  
behaves same way during runtime.
Any Spice-Gtk build mentioned in #1 does it in few seconds  doing F17 (beta) 
install ( runtime).

   As wrote MikeB ( view  
https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/seabios/+bug/823494)  
just spice/cirrus work for install and runtime in case of W7.

    I also believe there is an  issue in spice-gtk 0.9 build via Debian 
Unstable.
 It has nothing to do with spice enabled qemu version.

All my spice-gtk builds for ubuntu 12.04  mentioned in #1 are done in
different way  and work fine.

Thanks,
Boris
