Thanks for reply, I used trace of qxl_* instead of -global debug options 
(is it right or must I maintain also global qxl debug option?).
On attachment the new qemu log of windows 7 test with qxl vga.
The test was made as for below:

Can you check the log to see if there are strange things to fix also on 
spice and/or qemu?
Thanks for any reply.
