I tried spice while I was testing SL 6.1 a few months back. This is a
'quick and dirty' way of setting it up:
yum install spice-server, spice-client, and libguestfs-tools on the
kvm host. They should pull other required packages.
In virt-manager, edit a guest config:
- add "Display SPICE"
- remove "Display VNC"
- change the video mode to "qxl"
If no GUI, you can edit these by 'virsh edit <guest>' as well.
Start the guest.
Connect to it with a 'spicec -h localhost -p <port>'.
Hope this helps,
Akemi
