Thanks Robert, that is good info on spice, but not particularly relevant to my problems with qxl. They don't discuss qxl drivers at all on that wiki and I already have spice working with vga drivers, just not qxl. Maybe you can help me with the 2 puzzles Liang left behind?
1) This git link: http://cgit.freedesktop.org/xorg/driver/xf86-video- qxl/commit/?id=563f31ad081038ece8b5a5b525dd516fcd6ad0fd Unfortunately I'm too green to know what to do with this. The gzip archive contains some source files but no make or configure files. Do I overwrite the previous source files with the new git source files and use the old configure and make files? 2) His statement that "QXL Driver is included in debian unstable, you may build it for you ubuntu." Does he mean these drivers are unstable? http://xorg.freedesktop.org/releases/individual/driver/xf86-video-qxl-0.0.12.tar.gz Because those are the ones I currently have installed. I tried using the ones he linked to here: http://ftp.de.debian.org/debian/pool/main/x/xserver-xorg-video- qxl/xserver-xorg-video-qxl_0.0.12-1.dsc But they require xserver-xorg-dev version 1.7.6.901 which I don't know where to get. If you can help me with either problem it would be most appreciated.
