I've been trying to get Red Hat's Spice loaded to use for my Ubuntu VM for
more than a month now. I finally got the full spice package installed and
configured but it needs qxl drivers loaded in x windows which so far I've
been unable to accomplish.
I followed the instructions here:
http://www.cs.rug.nl/~jurjen/ApprenticesNotes/ch28s06.html
However, when I edit the xorg.conf file to load the qxl drivers I
installed, then stop and start gdm it complains that it can't find drivers
"qxl" and "void" and puts me into low graphics mode. When I try to
reinstall the drivers, it says latest drivers already installed nothing
left to do. I don't understand why this isn't working. The drivers are
installed, the hardware shows up, the xorg.conf has been modified. Are
the istructions relating to the xorg.conf incorrect? That's the only
thing I can think of.
