I installed Fedora 21 using Fedora-Live-Workstation-x86_64-21-Alpha-TC4.iso
into qemu with the qemu command line:

ionice -c 3 qemu-kvm -enable-kvm -global qxl.ram_size=1x1024 -m 2048M -smp 4 -drive file=./Fedora-Live-Workstation-x86_64-21-Alpha-TC4.iso.qcow2,index=0,media=disk,cache=unsafe -localtime -serial file:/tmp/qemu-Fedora-Live-Workstation-x86_64-21-Alpha-TC4.iso.qcow2-output.log -name Fedora-Live-Workstation-x86_64-21-Alpha-TC4.iso.qcow2 -cdrom /local/mfabian/iso/f21-Alpha-TC4/Fedora-Live-Workstation-x86_64-21-Alpha-TC4.iso -boot c -spice port=6000,disable-ticketing,streaming-video=off -vga qxl -display vnc=:4 -net nic -net user,hostname=Fedora-Live-Workstation-x86_64-21-Alpha-TC4.iso.qcow2,hostfwd=tcp::5555-:22 -monitor stdio -usb

After logging into Gnome, I type Alt+F2 to open the “enter command” dialog.

The rest of the screen turns black, only the “enter command” dialog
is visible. Not even the Gnome panel is visible anymore. See attached screenshot.

Could this be on purpose‽

In Fedora 20, the desktop behind the “enter command” dialog was dimmed down
a bit, but still visible.

Comment 1 Mike FABIAN 2015-04-20 15:40:43 UTC
It is still the same on Fedora-Live-Workstation-x86_64-22_Beta-3.iso.

It works on real hardware (On real hardware the screen in
the background of the “enter command” dialog is dimmed, with
a bright spot where the dialog appears (does not work when 2 monitors
are used, the dialog appears in the centre of one monitor, the bright
spot is in the centre of the total screen space of both monitors
together).

But it does not work in qemu, in qemu, the rest of the screen
turns completely black.

Comment 2 Fedora End Of Life 2016-07-19 12:04:16 UTC
Fedora 22 changed to end-of-life (EOL) status on 2016-07-19. Fedora 22 is
no longer maintained, which means that it will not receive any further
security or bug fix updates. As a result we are closing this bug.

If you can reproduce this bug against a currently maintained version of
Fedora please feel free to reopen this bug against that version. If you
are unable to reopen this bug, please file a new report against the
current release. If you experience problems, please add a comment to this
bug.

Thank you for reporting this bug and we are sorry it could not be fixed.
