[PVE-User] SPICE for Proxmox VE (pvetest)

[Matthew W. Ross]

Well, I'm glad to hear you're looking into it.

While TigerVNC and SPICE both require a plugin of some kind, I'm happy to have the options. I'm always looking for a way of accessing the server without required plugins or additional programs, if possible. Thus my desire for some kind of HTML5 client.

One last question: If I wanted to install a Windows machine with the SPICE graphics card, will the installer work before the driver is installed over the SPICE Client? Aka, does it emulate the base VGA well enough to get the driver installed, or do you have to move it to the SPICE driver after the guest installation?
