I was better off to send it here...  So here goes. I'm
running into some problems installing Spice .4 on my CentOS 5.5.  I was
following the instructions here:
http://www.spice-space.org/docs/spice_user_manual.pdf

I've compiled and installed all the dependencies and have the spice
client installed also, but ran into problems with the vdesktop.
Specifically this portion of the instructions for my older kernel:

In case of an older kernel (version<   2.6.30)
Get kernel sources using the following git repository:
git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/stable/linux-2.6.30.y.git
cd<spice_root>/vdesktop/kernel
      ./configure
      ln -s<linux-2.6.30 source dir>  linux-2.6
      make sync
      make


You were steered in the wrong direction :-)

This is a problem specific to vdesktop because they're using a very outdated version of kvm. The kernel code was split from the userspace code a long time ago.

Anthony Liguori
