What's tricky with Spice? If there's anything we can do to help make
Spice easier to use, let us know.
I had a couple of issues when using spice that I can contribute to the
discussion:
* The Firefox plugin is not widely available for non-RH Linux distros.
* I did not find any documentation for creating an optimal Linux guest with
spice. (Windows documentation seems a bit more complete).
* The QXL device was showing up as a Standard VGA Controller in my Windows XP
guest.
* Without optimizations, spice video and cursor responsiveness seemed much
slower than vnc over a compressed SSH tunnel.
