[Spice-devel] Unknown vga type: qxl

[liang.liang12 at zte.com.cn]

Hi, 

I found when running spiced QEMU with "-vga qxl" option, it complains 
unknown vga type. My question is: is there any special patch needed to 
support "-vga qxl" option? If no, how to support this?
BTW: I remove "-vga qxl" when running qemu, it starts up successfully. But 
I'm not sure whether QXL driver is used in this scenario.....?

-vga [std|cirrus|vmware|xenfb|none]

Also I checked the spiced QEMU code, there is also no corresponding qxl 
driver information.

} default_list[] = {
    { .driver = "isa-serial",           .flag = &default_serial    },
    { .driver = "isa-parallel",         .flag = &default_parallel  },
    { .driver = "isa-fdc",              .flag = &default_floppy    },

    { .driver = "virtio-serial",        .flag = &default_virtcon   },
    { .driver = "VGA",                  .flag = &default_vga       },
    { .driver = "cirrus-vga",           .flag = &default_vga       },
    { .driver = "vmware-svga",          .flag = &default_vga       },
};

Following is my procedure to download and compile spiced QEMU:
__________________________________
I download latest Spiced QEMU code from spice repositories using GIT and 
compile it following the instruction from 
wiki(http://www.spice-space.org/page/Building_Instructions):
http://www.spice-space.org/page/Building_Instructions 
 
cd $SRC_ROOT/qemu
./configure --prefix=$INST_ROOT --target-list=x86_64-softmmu 
--enable-spice
make
