Hi,
I am running Ubuntu 13.04 and got it working using the following steps:
1. Install the spice-client package which gives you /usr/bin/spicec.
2. Extract the libnsISpicec.so file from the latest Fedora (FC19) RPM
3. Placed it in /usr/lib/mozilla/plugins/
4. Restart Firefox
Worked for me!
Thanks a lot for the information!
Didn't tried spice xpi with Ubuntu 13.04, but with Linux Mint 14 (which is based on
Ubuntu 12.10) you can install the xpi without the need of Fedora rpms:
1. install spice client:
# apt-get install spice-client
2. download spice xpi from: https://launchpad.net/~jasonbrooks/+archive/ppa/+packages
# dpkg -i spice-xpi_2.7-0~41~precise1_amd64.deb
The xpi package is compiled for Ubuntu 12.04, but works fine with Ubuntu 12.10 as well -
don't know if it works with Ubuntu 13.04...
Regards,
René
