[Spice-devel] vdservice still sometimes fails to start in Windows 7

Hi everyone,

Using the latest spice-guest-tools-0.2.exe it still sometimes happens 
(~10% of the time) that the vdagent does not start when the Windows 7 
guest is started.
It was previously suggested here that I would try to start it manually. 
As can be seen in the log files below, this does not work. To the 
untrained eye it would appear that the vdagent starts normally but that 
it is actually the vdservice that fails.

Below is the vdagent.log. The 832 entries are from the initial boot. The 
entry after that is when I tried to restart the service.

1552::INFO::,000::run::Agent stopped

The corresponding (I think)  vdservice.log is attached below. It's 
difficult to be sure now that there are no timestamps to match up the 
entries.

If there is anything I can do to help resolve this, please let me know.
