![]() We need to add a port for spice in that device: -device virtserialport,chardev=spicechannel0,name=.0Īnd we need a spicevmc chardev for that port: -chardev spicevmc,id=spicechannel0,name=vdagent We need to add the virtio-serial device: -device virtio-serial-pci Now stop the guest and we'll build up the hostside qemu-kvm commandline. Be sure the agent is running (and for future, started automatically).įirst the guest side, since the guest is running. We also need to install the spice vdagent in guest. We need to add a virtio-serial device to the guest, and open a port for the spice vdagent. Now the only thing left is to improve the experience byĮnabling the spice agent communication channel between the host and the guest (you wanted copy and paste between host and guest right? ) ![]() This will not pop up an SDL window, so launch the client to connect to the guest. To keep it simple, we'll not require authentication and simply bind the server to 127.0.0.1 on port 5900. So first be sure the client is installed: We need to enable the spice server in qemu-kvm. However, this is not enough to use SPICE. (II) qxl: Driver for QXL virtual graphics: QXL 1 You'll see a normal SDL window pop up, and if you poke inside the guest you'll find that X is using the qxl device to display:Ġ0:02.0 VGA compatible controller: Red Hat, Inc. # /usr/bin/qemu-kvm -m 1024 -name f15 -drive file=/images/f15.img,if=virtio -vga qxl The simplest part is adding the qxl graphics device to the guest. ![]() #SON MAC SPICE IT UP HOW TO#Will first show how to do this manually, and second how to do it using the virt-manager tool.įor extensive details on SPICE, visit Manually, using qemu-kvm command line directly This example is based on qemu-kvm (0.15.0) as installed in Fedora 15.
