Hi, I have set up KVM on FC12. I was wondering if its possible to Display the VM using spice + libvirt? As in, if I can define my domain with graphics like: <graphics type='spice' port='-1' autoport='yes' listen='0.0.0.0'/> or <graphics type='spice' port='5903' ' listen='0.0.0.0'/> Thanks & Regards Anuj

KVM in Fedora 12 does not support SPICE, since it is not merged in the upstream repository.

Hi, Thanks a lot for the reply. Is it going to be there in the future? And i wanted to confirm one more thing... KVM on RHEL 5.4 supports SPICE through libvirt? Because there were some patches regarding " Implement RHEL-5.4 support for SPICE graphics" Regards Anuj On Thu, Mar 4, 2010 at 3:31 PM, Daniel P. Berrange <berrange@redhat.com>wrote:

When spice is ready upstream, I have no doubt that libvirt will support it.

Unfortunately these patches never made it to RHEL-5. Maybe some time in the future.
