[Spice-devel] Ubuntu - max video resoltion 1024x768

[Naga Mohan Pothula]

Hi Alon,

Thank you for your prompt response. 
I can't work on xorg.conf to set resolution for each guest. This is not optimum soltuion for me that hundreds of guests need to be updated. 
Need to support clipboard and automatic resolution change for ubuntu guest.
I tried updating qxl driver for ubuntu guest but "xserver-xorg-video-qxl 0.0.12-1ubuntu4 installed only.

Can you please provide me the link for latest qxl driver for ubuntu?

Thanks/mohan.

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.
