[Spice-devel] Delay in Gimp when using qxl driver

[Dominique Rodrigues]

Hi,

Since I use qxl driver in virtual desktop powered by qemu-kvm, I found a 
strange problem with Gimp.

After launching Gimp, open a new windows, and then try to draw 
something. It appears that the drawing is very slow and does not follow 
the mouse at all.

It is the same if I use spicy, spicec or vnc to connect to my virtual 
desktop.

This problem does not appear with cirrus or vmware graphic drivers.

I found that on any Linux distribution (CentOS, RHEL, Scientific Linux, 
Debian, Ubuntu).

I currently use :
- qemu-kvm 1.0 compiled with spice support
- spice-protocol 0.10.1
- spice 0.10
- spice-gtk 0.7
- xorg-qxl driver 0.16

Is there any explanation for that ?

Regards,

--
