Is there documentation somewhere about how to setup the server correctly?

See http://cgit.freedesktop.org/xorg/driver/xf86-video-qxl/tree/README.xspice

Basically it boils down to:

Xspice --port 5900 --disable-ticketing :3.0

All options that Xspice doesn't recognize are passed as is to X. Xspice is just a wrapper python script that sets up environment variables and ends by execve'ing Xorg.

Comment 7 Tim Flink 2013-01-30 15:36:20 UTC

Apologies for the noise, I'm testing a new method for proposing blockers and it wasn't supposed to actually modify the production bug.

anaconda-26.21.4-1.fc26 has been submitted as an update to Fedora 26. https://bodhi.fedoraproject.org/updates/FEDORA-2017-f620d8c7c2

Looks like the Bodhi web UI likes to add random unrelated bugs to an update...
