Of course, it can instead run on the guest, but that was not its purpose. We already had a solution for the guest that uses Spice, as you've mentioned. Dear Uri, Thank you so so much for your mail , it's very important. I started to learn Xspice because Our team are trying to find a solution to Linux virtual desktop. Today I created a Fedora guest OS and found there are already pre-installed vdagent and qxl driver in it. My spice client can connect to the server and logged into the guest, the most important part is the qxl dirver in guest is working, I think the Linux virtual desktop works, but i didn't do any Xspice thing, i use the host used to hosting Windows guest. In my opinion spice client will be able to access to physical machine when an spice server package is installed, but what do we use Xspice for? and what will setting environment variables for X server in the host and enabling video, mouse and keyboard driver(libspiceqxl_drv.so) help for? It's a little long mail, many questions in my head. Anyway ,thank you Uri again:) B R Cynthia Hi If you are using a virtual machine, Linux/Windows, you do not need to use Xspice. Just use QXL device/driver. People who want to use Spice to remote display a (non VM) Linux server, can use Xspice. Xspice options can be set using environment variables. Hope that helps, Uri. ___ Spice-devel mailing list Spice-devel@lists.freedesktop.org http://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/spice-devel

Dear Uri, Thank you so much for your reply, it's very helpful,as I have been struggling with Xspice for three weeks. Now I can focus on the components in guest.

I will be very very appreciated~ For your virtual machines spice server is running in the host, i.e. in each qemu process. For Xspice the spice server is Xspice - it's a different configuration, there is no virtual machine, no host/guest distinction. Wherever Xspice is running, there the server is.
