[Qemu-devel] 0.15 testing, spice, wxp

[Qemu-devel] 0.15 testing, spice, wxp

[Rick Vernam]

I'd like to do some very high-level testing of qemu-stable-0.15 (qemu-system-
x86_64, specifically) running Linux host, Windows XP SP3 guest.
I'm afraid that I don't have a ready environment for building the windows 
guest bits, and the added time requirement simply puts it over the top for me.
Are there updated spice windows guest binaries available anywhere?  I suppose 
this would just be the QXL video driver and the guest agent?  From looking at 
spice-space.org/download.html I concluded that I'm looking for verion 0.8.x, 
but my searches have left me empty handed.

Thanks for any tips,
-Rick

Just use the most recent versions from spice-space.org/download.html, 
they should work just fine with 0.15

Most recent windows binaries are 0.6.x.  They've been working well for the 
past few months, thank you.
I take it, then, that there are no 0.8.x compiled binaries for 0.8.x?

Thanks,
