[OpenIndiana-discuss] /hipster: kvm questions

[Predrag Zečević - Technical Support Analyst]

Hi all,

due to lack of VirtualBox support after July illumos changes, I moved 
Windows VM (used for skype mainly) to kvm...

KVM guests start fine, but:
* I am unable to use shared folders (not terribly important, but nice to 
have)
* clipboards sharing between host/guest does not work. I spent some time 
looking around for solution, and almost every document mentions "spice" 
tools, but our qemu-kvm is not compiled to support it. tigervnc (if I 
start guest with vnc) also does not work (although clipboards sharing is 
enabled)
* I cannot get better resolution than 1024*768 - whatever I do it is not 
possible to use 1280x720x32 or 1366x768x32

Does anyone uses kvm and knows solution for (best would be, if possible) 
for all 3 problems I have faced with?

Regards.
