Alon, thank you for your reply. Does this mean there is a bigger step to support Windows 8?

Gentlemen,

i just tried to compile the latest qxl driver (cloned from GIT) for Windows 8. The first suprise was the fact that Microsoft introduced a dependency of
having 4 GB Visual Studio installed to use the latest WDK.

However the "dirs" file has been converted perfectly. Additional there was nither an error nor a warning while compiling. Unfortunately I didn´t get it work. The installer "tells" me I had the driver wouldn´t be made for this windows verision. But in fact it is especially compiled for Windows 8.

AFAIK Windows 8 only supports WDDM drivers, ours is a XPDM driver.
