| Doc Text: |
Previously Windows always captured the Ctrl+Alt+Del key sequence and did not let applications intercept it. It was not possible for mingw-virt-viewer to catch Ctrl+Alt+Del and pass it to the guest when the guest was in focus. This key combination can now be passed to the guest using the Ctrl+Alt+End key combination.

Jonathon sent a patch series upstream: https://www.redhat.com/archives/virt-tools-list/2013-August/msg00209.html Suggest moving this back to ASSIGNED as: Ctrl-alt-end sometimes conflicts with the default release cursor which is ctrl-alt. It happens consistently when the agent is not running, otherwise for some reason noticeable only after maximizing the window. Note that: This causes no issues if the default is overridden, e.g. RHEVM and Shift+F12. (In reply to Tomas Jamrisko from comment #3) > Note that: > This causes no issues if the default is overridden, e.g. RHEVM and Shift+F12. If it works with default RHEVM, I suggest a document note, and a new bug upstream for the ctrl-alt conflict.

That sounds reasonable to me as well.

Ok, so had a shot at physically installed 7 instead of a VM and it's broken there as well.

What is the reason to keep it in N_QA? should it be moved to ASSIGNED? I just posted another patch to the mailing list that should fix the issue in fullscreen: https://www.redhat.com/archives/virt-tools-list/2013-October/msg00098.html *** Bug 1008832 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. *** This bug is currently attached to errata RHEA-2013:15512. If this change is not to be documented in the text for this errata please either remove it from the errata, set the requires_doc_text flag to minus (-), or leave a "Doc Text" value of "--no tech note required" if you do not have permission to alter the flag. Otherwise to aid in the development of relevant and accurate release documentation, please fill out the "Doc Text" field above with these four (4) pieces of information: * Cause: What actions or circumstances cause this bug to present. * Consequence: What happens when the bug presents. * Fix: What was done to fix the bug. * Result: What now happens when the actions or circumstances above occur. (NB: this is not the same as 'the bug doesn't present anymore') Once filled out, please set the "Doc Type" field to the appropriate value for the type of change made and submit your edits to the bug. For further details on the Cause, Consequence, Fix, Result format please refer to: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/page.cgi?id=fields.html#cf_release_notes Thanks in advance. Cheryn, the doc text is not fully accurate, the last sentence should read "This key combination can now be passed to the guest using the Ctrl+Alt+End key combination" or something similar. Thanks for the correction Christophe, I've changed it according to your suggestion.
