Red Hat QXL GPU Driver for Windows 7?

[Jeffrey Ollie]

When I powered up the Windows 7 guest that I have on my Fedora 18 system at
work, it wanted to install a driver for a "Red Hat QXL GPU" device.
Googling didn't turn up anything definitive but I'm wondering if this is an
early result of:

Is there someplace to get updated video drivers for Windows 7?

No, this feature has nothing to do with Windows. You can get Windows guest
drivers including a RH-signed QXL driver from here:

You can also build from source but then you have to sign them with some
"developer test certificate" or something in order to get them loaded on x86-64
WNT guests.

I think what you are looking for is here, under Windows guest tools:

I remember when I did this a while back I had to find the virtio drivers
and install them separately too, so the other link provided is probably
useful.

Installing unsigned drivers is an option if necessary, but you have to
disable the driver signature enforcement (which for a VM is probably
fine). I believe the released executable contains signed drivers. The unstable
driver on http://spice-space.org/page/Repositories I don't think is
signed.

This is going off of memory from about a year ago, YMMV.
