[Spice-devel] Qemu repository

[Charles.Tsai-蔡清海-研究發展部]

Hi Hans,

	Thank you for your suggestion.  I tried your Qemu code. But I found my qemu script which is only coded with simple qemu command options.
	Before using your Qemu code,  my VM could be launched by running the following script without any problem. But it failed to launch the VM      when using your Qemu code. Are there any major changes in Qemu that fail to run the following Qemu command options? Please give me some suggestions or hints why the following script fails to launch a VM. Thanks.

If you're using spice I recommend using my spice repository, which contains some additional patches for spice, some of which are NTH, but others are more or less must have:
http://cgit.freedesktop.org/~jwrdegoede/qemu/log/?h=qemu-kvm-1.0-usbredir

Most of the patches in there are upstream for the soon to be released qemu-1.1, but some (notably the chardev flowcontrol patches) are not. I'll try to start a
1.1 branch with the necessary patches for spice in there soon.

Regards,

Hans
