[Spice-devel] vdagent in win7?

Hello,
I'm using Fedora14 with virt-preview repo.
I have a win7 SP1 32bit guest with virtio disk and net and qxl device working.
I successfully installed virtio-serial from vioserial-win-1.1.16
(I device manager I see VirtIO-serial device as correctly installed)
and then
vdservice.exe install from vdagent-x86-0.6.3
and get success

I would like to have copy/paste from/to guest working...
Is this possible?
I'm running spicy and I can see from the services that the RHEV Spice
Agent starts and then stops (if I restart it, it stats/stops and
windows says that could be ok as some services are stopped if they
have nothing to do...)

In options I have "Automagic clipboard..." selected

In Windows\temp I see the vdservice.log with these contents:
455.538 VDService::main: ***Service started***

455.538 log_version: 0.5.1.0

455.538 VDService::main: didn't find any qxl devices

when doing a paste from guest I have:
(spicy:4494): GSpice-WARNING **: Guest clipboard is not available.

At the bottom of the spicy window I have
mouse:client, agent:no

BTW: how should it work in terms of sequence of steps to do copy/paste
from guest to host and viceversa?
I don't know the others, but for me it is not so clear....
