I've added the fix you've proposed in the 'qxl graphics support'
ticket [1] while we review this. I hope we have time to implement some
if not all of these tweaks to the parameters but in case this is not
possible it could be changed in the driver configuration.
The patch is in the git repository [2] in case you want to try it.
Cheers

Hi,
Hello,

The proposed solution is adding an special raw parameter that is
automatically added when SPICE is selected. Another option is having a
predefined set of options that can be configured like the number of
USBs or the sound card model.
I am not used to SPICE and can not set the parameters more used nor
understand values like the channel name (is it always the same?).
Could you help me selecting which parameters should we add? Do you
prefer a RAW like value where to add anything you want?
To use it, I would like to make a selection in some predefined items.
1. select SPICE graphics, this display a list of predefined items
2. checkbox enable vdagent support, if selected: display the channel
name with a default to com.redhat.spice.0 which seems to be the
default, at leat on Debian[1]
3. checkbox enable guest agent, if selected, the target name must be
org.qemu.guest_agent.0 to communicate with guest agent[2]
4. checkbox enable USB ports, if selected: ask the number of ports
5. checkbox enable sound, if selected: list card models, with a
default selected
For the UI, I'm not sure about the fixed list of checkboxes, maybe some
kind of list to select items to enable which add a bloc in the
wizard:
1. select SPICE graphics
2. display a list: Enable list of items
3. user select one item in the list, for example vdagent support
4. a bloc is added in the wizard:
* with the title vdagent support (X), the (X) represent a remove
this items
* with an input field labeled channel name: and a default value of
com.redhat.spice.0
5. the vdagent support is removed from the selection list to avoid
adding several times the same item
Then, we could be mad and imagine some kind of RAW wizard creator, to
let users define their own RAW templates:
- define a type: KVM
- define label: enable USB ports
- checkbox require user input, if selected, for each input
* define id: usb_port_numbers
* define label: number of port
* define type: integer
* define default: 3
- define a RAW template (as Jinja template since I don't know ruby ones):
devices
{% for port in usb_port_numbers %}
redirdev bus='usb' type='spicevmc'/
{% endfor %}
/devices
But I'm getting off-topic of the thread ;-)
Regards.
