Hi All,
If you have a KVM virtual machine of XP and can't get the
clipboard to work, here are my notes (you guys are always helping me,
so...):
Clipboard won't work in KVM-XP:
Reference: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1200592
http://www.spice-space.org/download.html
spice-guest-tools-0.74.exe
is not compatible with XP
--> Uninstall spice-guest-tools-0.74.exe
All Programs --> Spice-GuestTools --> Uninstall SPICE Guest
Tools
--> manually removing the "C:\Program Files\SPICE Guest Tools" directory
--> reboot
--> reverting to spice-guest-tools-0.52.exe
K:\Windows\Drivers\KVM\spice-guest-tools-0.52.exe
--> reboot
In Device Manager (View, Show All Devices), you will get
the same
initial symptom of two "virt-Serial Driver", one with a
bang mark.
--> update the driver of the one with the bang mark using
"Don't search,
I will choose the driver to install" from the ones in
C:\Program Files\SPICE Guest
Tools\drivers\winxp\x86\vioser.inf
which will automatically loads a driver called:
virt-Serial Driver Raw PDO
--> reboot
