You can copy the Install dir from a win 7 install (c:\Program Files\Spice 
Client) and then use the command line to install the service, from memory:

  "vdservice install"

That should get you mouse integration, but without the qxl driver no dynamic 
screen resizing. You're probably better off using rdp.

Also, I think the virtio drivers in the spice 0.74 install are behind the 
redhat 0.1.84 iso.
