Description-en: Xspice X server
Xspice is an X server and Spice server in one. It consists of a wrapper script
for executing Xorg with the right parameters and environment variables, a
module names spiceqxl_drv.so implementing three drivers: a video mostly
identical code to the guest qxl X driver, and keyboard and mouse reading from
the spice inputs channel.
.
Xspice allows regular X connections, while a spice client provides the keyboard
and mouse and video output.
