Dear Uri,
Thank you so so much for your mail , it's very important.
I started to learn Xspice because Our team are trying to find a
solution to Linux virtual desktop.
Today I created a Fedora guest OS and found there are already
pre-installed vdagent and qxl driver in it.
My spice client can connect to the server and logged into the guest,
the most important part is the qxl dirver in guest is working,
I think the Linux virtual desktop works, but i didn't do any Xspice
thing, i use the host used to hosting Windows guest.
In my opinion spice client will be able to access to physical machine
when an spice server package is installed, but what do we use Xspice for?
and what will setting environment variables for X server in the host
and enabling video, mouse and keyboard driver(libspiceqxl_drv.so) help
for?
It's a little long mail, many questions in my head. Anyway ,thank you
Uri again:)

Hi
If you are using a virtual machine, Linux/Windows, you do not need to
use Xspice. Just use QXL device/driver.
People who want to use Spice to remote display a (non VM) Linux server,
can use Xspice.
Xspice options can be set using environment variables.
Hope that helps,
Uri.
