[Users] mozilla-xpi for Ubuntu

[Jean-Pierre Pitout]

Hi,

I have added it to the below link where I found some other info about 
the spice-xpi. http://www.ovirt.org/Testing/Spice#Testing_Spice_with_Ovirt

I've also had feedback that there is another method:

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...


I haven't added these steps to the wiki as I haven't tested them yet.
