I managed to get a larger resolution by specifying a Viewport setting in
xorg.conf, I used the 11.04 livecd (amd64):

Section "Device"
  Identifier "qxl"
  Driver "qxl"
EndSection

Section "Screen"
  Identifier "screen"
  Device "qxl"
  SubSection "Display"
    Virtual 1920 1200
  EndSubSection
EndSection

This is pretty old. Also, I can't find a spice agent package - if it
isn't packaged you won't have clipboard, automatic resolution change.
