Dear spice-developers,
recently the kvm list pointed me to spice, since for my task I had to
have to 2 monitors from the VM available. spice seems to be the only
way to do it (beside virtualbox).
I downloaded the 0.4.0 releasae, build all the stuff, and after some
usual issues with package versions it all runs quite well. I even
managed to configure a x-session only consisting of a full screened
spiece-client for two monitors. Well actually I tried windows 7 64 bit
as guest first, but realised its too early for that, so I went for 32bit.
The only issue I've is with sound, I just am not able to get it to
work. The AC97 driver of windows 7 (I downloaded the one from realtek,
as win7 doesn't seem to have a native one) just wont be able to get to
"start" it. So why I'm writing to spice-devel instead of kvm: first im
still confused about how sound should be handled, does it get through
spicec already? Or is this planned for a later release and yet we're
supposed to use qemus native sound support. The second is, I tried to
configure another HW emulation, like some qemu/kvm posts tell people
with ac97 driver problems to do, but the qemu ./configure --help in
the vdesktop directory tells me there is only AC97 available, while
traditionally there should be more options.
Gladly would appreciate your help, otherwise I like spice ;-)
Kind regards,
Axel

Indeed Win7/64b does not have an inbox AC97 driver. Note however that
Win7/32b does have one - get it from Windows Update.
