Sure. My server is Fedora 12, Intel Xeon CPU 5...@3.00ghz, 16Gigs RAM.
The networking is GigE with a bridged network. I am just using a
crappy Netgear switch but the network traffic is pretty minimal so I
doubt that is related. Qemu command to start the windows guest:

  /usr/libexec/qemu-spice -L /usr/share/qemu-spice -smp 2 -m 2048 -hda
/mnt/images1/vm/winxp.qcow2 -boot c -net
nic,macaddr=52:54:00:31:04:c3,model=e1000 -net
tap,ifname=XP1,script=/etc/lan-ifup -monitor stdio -usbdevice tablet
-soundhw ac97 -qxl 1,ram=64 -spice port=5930,disable-ticketing

The player is VLC player and here is an example movie (but any video
pretty much gives me choppy playback):

I tried compiling just the client and libspice from the gitorious repo
but I just ended up with a segfault in qemu when trying to connect
with the client. I don't think I need to build qemu/vdesktop as well?
I wanted to try out the  gl_fbo and gl_pbuff canvas types and compare
to the gdi accelerated windows client. Maybe it is worth doing an
update of the packages in the F12 repo so that Linux clients can get
OGL acceleration? I suspect most of the people playing with Spice at
this stage will be mainly Linux users.

  native_qxl_worker_wakeup:
  native_qxl_worker_wakeup:
  reds_handle_main_link:
  reds_show_new_channel: channel 1:0, connected sucessfully, over Non
Secure link
  Segmentation fault

FYI - I had to add "const" to the SSL_METHOD in server/reds.c and
client/red_peer.cpp to get it to compile on Fedora 12
(openssl-1.0.0-0.13.beta4).

Thanks,

Daire
