[Spice-devel] qxl fails to build on OpenSUSE 12.3

[Rob Verduijn]

Check my src rpm there is an xorg config file in there  for qxl that
contains a workaround .
It contains the following :

Section "Device"
  Identifier "QXL video"
  Driver "qxl"
  Option "EnableSurfaces" "0"
EndSection

just save it as : /etc/X11/xorg.conf.d/50-qxl.conf

That works for me.
