Well it depends on what you consider 'working properly'

Mainly you will need to have the VirtIO drivers, the Spice Drivers and 
the Spice VDAgent
For additional features supported by oVirt you'll also need the 
ovirt-guest-agent
The qemu agent is currently optional, however will be required together 
with the ovirt-guest-agent at some point to support some additional 
features.
