That isn't quite all there is to it. What about installing the xorg-x11-drv-qxl package in the guest VM and configuring it in xorg.conf? How exactly is that done? Also I believe spice-server needs to be running on the VM host. I'm kinda going by Fedora 14's SPICE feature page (http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Features/Spice) as well as a CentOS related one (http://www.geekgoth.de/tag/centos/). Are all the packages one needs to get SPICE going on the VM host included in CentOS 5.5? What packages are those? Are there any steps required for inside of the VM? Simply having the right qemu-kvm and starting up the VM with the -spice flag isn't all there is to it. What many of us need are step by step instructions.
