Hi All,

We are glad to notify you that the first official version of QXL-WDDM-DOD
driver with Windows 10 support has been released.

Precompiled and signed by Red Hat binaries are available at:
https://www.spice-space.org/download/windows/qxl-wddm-dod/qxl-wddm-dod-0.4-1/qxlwddm-0.4-1.zip

Best regards,
Dmitry
Thanks to any people worked/working on it.
I tried it on windows 10 pro 64 bit when before I had qxl-dod taken from
flexvdi-guest-tools-2.2.9.exe (source: https://github.com/flexVDI/qxl-dod)
The new official driver is working but performance is bad, with any
video local or web, fullscreen or not, also on very low resolution
(1024x768), mouse move lag is very high and near unusable, performance
bad is visible also on basic use case like websites scrolling.
Before install new driver I removed the unofficial flex one from windows
device manager, checked that new is used and also rebooted windows.
I also tried different clients with different spice-gtk/virt-viewer
version on both windows and linux.
Same result, the thing seems related to the new driver.
I suppose that flex driver have some different that make the performance
better or there is a bug/unexpected case in new driver, but I not
checked the source code and I don't have experience in windows drivers
coding.
If you need more informations/tests tell me and I'll post them.

Thanks for any reply and sorry for my bad english.


Ciao Fabio,

I think what you are experiencing is not real performance but
a different way the mouse is handled.
I was looking at differences in our driver and FlexVDI one and this
is one of them.
We (at least some people related to RedHat and some other from
FlexVDI) are willing to merge the two efforts.
Fabio, do you have some Windows 8 machine you can test?
Would be really helpful.

Frediano


Thanks for your reply, the problem is not only mouse lag but also video refresh with bigger lag, for the mouse probably is the vdagent if the patches added by flex are different and not compatible but about the video (or general) performance probably is a different problem.
I don't have any windows 8 vm, only some few dozen of windows 10 in production with latest flexvdi spice guest tools, work correctly but have lag on some animation like scrolling windows login page with image full screen, video on medium/high resolution (but better then new official driver) and occasion hang on windows logo during windows 10 major update (I don't know if is related to spice drivers/services or not).

Is there any vdagent testing build with all newer patches available somewhere?
