Hello, I am testing Xen 4.2 (unstable) with Qemu 1.1rc2 and spice. I have severe video performance problems on Windows 7 guest and X fails to run on Debian wheezy and Ubuntu Precise guest. The problem may be related to Xen and I'm asking there too, but I want to make sure my invocation is correct as far as Qemu is concerned.
If someone is experimenting with spice and has qxl video, vdagent, audio and usb redirection working, can you post your Qemu and SeaBIOS version and exact Qemu invocation, so that I can try to replicate your results. Are qxl and other spice features dependent on kvm in some way? Should I use -vga qxl or -device qxl-vga? Thanks, LG Here is Qemu invocation by xl: -------------------------- libxl: debug: libxl_dm.c:1001:libxl__spawn_local_dm: Spawning device-model /usr/ lib/xen/bin/qemu-system-i386 with arguments: libxl: debug: libxl_dm.c:1003:libxl__spawn_local_dm: /usr/lib/xen/bin/qemu-system-i386 libxl: debug: libxl_dm.c:1003:libxl__spawn_local_dm: -xen-domid libxl: debug: libxl_dm.c:1003:libxl__spawn_local_dm: 8 libxl: debug: libxl_dm.c:1003:libxl__spawn_local_dm: -chardev libxl: debug: libxl_dm.c:1003:libxl__spawn_local_dm: socket,id=libxl-cmd,path=/var/run/xen/qmp-libxl-8,server,nowait libxl: debug: libxl_dm.c:1003:libxl__spawn_local_dm: -mon libxl: debug: libxl_dm.c:1003:libxl__spawn_local_dm: chardev=libxl-cmd,mode=control libxl: debug: libxl_dm.c:1003:libxl__spawn_local_dm: -name libxl: debug: libxl_dm.c:1003:libxl__spawn_local_dm: W7 libxl: debug: libxl_dm.c:1003:libxl__spawn_local_dm: -spice libxl: debug: libxl_dm.c:1003:libxl__spawn_local_dm: port=6000,tls-port=0,addr=0.0.0.0,disable-ticketing,agent-mouse=on libxl: debug: libxl_dm.c:1003:libxl__spawn_local_dm: -boot libxl: debug: libxl_dm.c:1003:libxl__spawn_local_dm: order=cd libxl: debug: libxl_dm.c:1003:libxl__spawn_local_dm: -smp libxl: debug: libxl_dm.c:1003:libxl__spawn_local_dm: 2,maxcpus=3 libxl: debug: libxl_dm.c:1003:libxl__spawn_local_dm: -device libxl: debug: libxl_dm.c:1003:libxl__spawn_local_dm: rtl8139,id=nic0,netdev=net0,mac=00:16:3e:6b:1f:d9 libxl: debug: libxl_dm.c:1003:libxl__spawn_local_dm: -netdev libxl: debug: libxl_dm.c:1003:libxl__spawn_local_dm: type=tap,id=net0,ifname=vif8.0-emu,script=no,downscript=no libxl: debug: libxl_dm.c:1003:libxl__spawn_local_dm: -device libxl: debug: libxl_dm.c:1003:libxl__spawn_local_dm: qxl-vga libxl: debug: libxl_dm.c:1003:libxl__spawn_local_dm: -global libxl: debug: libxl_dm.c:1003:libxl__spawn_local_dm: qxl-vga.vram_size=33554432 libxl: debug: libxl_dm.c:1003:libxl__spawn_local_dm: -global libxl: debug: libxl_dm.c:1003:libxl__spawn_local_dm: qxl-vga.ram_size=33554432 libxl: debug: libxl_dm.c:1003:libxl__spawn_local_dm: -device libxl: debug: libxl_dm.c:1003:libxl__spawn_local_dm: virtio-serial-pci,id=virtio-serial0,max_ports=16 libxl: debug: libxl_dm.c:1003:libxl__spawn_local_dm: -chardev libxl: debug: libxl_dm.c:1003:libxl__spawn_local_dm: spicevmc,name=vdagent,id=vdagent libxl: debug: libxl_dm.c:1003:libxl__spawn_local_dm: -device libxl: debug: libxl_dm.c:1003:libxl__spawn_local_dm: virtserialport,nr=1,bus=virtio-serial0.0,chardev=vdagent,name=com.redhat.spice.0 libxl: debug: libxl_dm.c:1003:libxl__spawn_local_dm: -M libxl: debug: libxl_dm.c:1003:libxl__spawn_local_dm: xenfv libxl: debug: libxl_dm.c:1003:libxl__spawn_local_dm: -m libxl: debug: libxl_dm.c:1003:libxl__spawn_local_dm: 1792 libxl: debug: libxl_dm.c:1003:libxl__spawn_local_dm: -drive libxl: debug: libxl_dm.c:1003:libxl__spawn_local_dm: file=/mnt/vm/disks/W7.disk1.xm,if=ide,index=0,media=disk,format=raw -- ---- Nuova grafica e nuove funzionalità!
