Re: Running SPICE on ppc64le

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



The funny part is that I'm *not* on Big Endian, my ppc64 runs Little Endian Fedora. For some reason spice (and QXL apparently) don't get compiled on ppc64le: are you suggesting that if I somehow enable it at compilation time then it should work out of the box?
If so, why did Fedora disable it?

Hi,
Is there any reason why Spice is not available on ppc64le?
I've read there are still some issues with big endian, but what's wrong
with little endian?
I would really love to be able to use QXL and especially USB redirection
on my Raptor Blackbird (Power 9).

Bests,
Niccolo'

SPICE does not mean QXL, you can use SPICE without QXL.
Why QXL is not compiled for PPC I have no idea.
Recently there were quite some compatibility patches for big endian machines,
should work mostly out of the box (I have only some minor patches for
the agent).
Officially only x64 and x86 are supported.
