I think there is a misunderstanding Andrew.

The initial question was "if I work in a physical windows environment, is my spice-gtk client for windows able to enable USB redirection between my workstation and any virtual machine under Linux, Windows or whatever ?".  Arnon replied that up to now, the anwser is no.

If you work under Linux (I personnaly use Mageia on my workstation and Debian on my servers), USB redirection can be done towards any virtual machine, Linux or Windows.

This works also for me with Windows Seven and Windows Server 2008. I have recompiled qemu-kvm with usbredir library for Mageia and Debian, and it works fine.

Hi Suyi

Fedora 16 does have support for USB redirection in Windows XP as we have a School with 45 spice clients machines using it.

You will noticed a 20-30% increase in CPU usage with spice redirection on Fedora 16, although this should be see as a sandbox.



Here are some links that will help you set this up.

spice-gtk windows client support for USB redir is still under development. Patches will be posted very soon.
The old spicec client for windows supports USB redir using Incentives Pro's product.

If I remember well (TBC by spice developers), USB redirection works now only for a Linux client and should be a feature for Microsoft operating systems (no idea when).
