I'm trying to get spice working on a Windows 2008R2 x64 server running 
as guest under Fedora 15.

vdagent-win32_20110801.zip

and got qxl from git.

Built and installed the qxl driver as described in 
http://spice-space.org/page/WinQXL#How_to_build_the_driver.

Using virt-manager, I've selected qxl as the video driver and qxl server 
instead of vnc.

Rebooted.

When I tried to set up vdagent:

> Z:\spice\20110918\vdagent-win-x64>vdservice uninstall
> Service removed successfully
>
> Z:\spice\20110918\vdagent-win-x64>vdagent
>
> Z:\spice\20110918\vdagent-win-x64>vdservice install
> Service installed successfully
>
> Z:\spice\20110918\vdagent-win-x64>net start vdservice
> System error 2 has occurred.
>
> The system cannot find the file specified.
>

vdservice does not show up under "Services" in Windows configuration 
tool, so I can't start it from there.

And windows does not see the qxl adapter as new hardware. I can't 
install the qxl drivers as an update to the vga adapter.

Any help appreciated.
