[pve-devel] [PATCH 2/2] add spice support to qemu

[Alexandre DERUMIER]

I don't known, spice works better with qxl, that's why I force it when using spice.

Also if no qxl driver is available in guest, the graphic card auto fallback to vga. (spice magic :)

That mean that we even could use qxl as default instead vga.

Why don't we use the vga option instead? We currently have: 

vga => { 
optional => 1, 
type => 'string', 
description => "Select VGA type. If you want to use high resolution modes (>= 1280x1024x16) then you should use option 'std' or 'vmware'. Default is 'std' for win8/win7/w2k8, and 'cirrur' for other OS types", 
enum => [qw(std cirrus vmware)], 
}, 

I thought we can simply extend that to: 

enum => [qw(std cirrus vmware qxl)], 

Any objections?
