Bug 1362202

Created attachment 1186439 [details]
wrong-positioning

Andrei Stepanov tried to reproduce this on a 6.9 client and was unable to reproduce. Radek, do you know of any way to reliably reproduce this?

Yes. Did little more research. It is reproducible on client configuration with monitors of different resolution, while the resolution of primary monitor has to be lower.

   primary       secondary
  +-------+  +---------------+
  |       |  |               |
  |       |  |               |
  |       |  |               |
  +-------+  |               |
  1280x1024  +---------------+
                1920x1080

two VM displays are then attached on the secondary monitor and retain the resolution of primary monitor:

  primary  full HD (secondary)

               1920x1080
reproduced also on monitor configuration: primary: 1680x1050, secondary 1920x1080.
Reproducible only on Win7 guest (100%) and WinXP(60%). 
I tried both rhel 6.8-z  and rhel 7.3 nightly clients. The bug can be reproduced on both of them (even by Andrei).

*** Bug 1348534 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. ***

reproducible also on rhel 7.2 and rhel 7.3 guests with monitor-mapping=1:2;2:1. Reproducibility 100%

I still cannot reproduce here.

So I tried to reproduce the bug again on up to date config.
a) rhel 7.3 nightly client:

virt-viewer-2.0-11.el7.x86_64
spice-glib-0.31-5.el7.x86_64
spice-gtk-0.31-5.el7.x86_64
spice-server-0.12.4-18.el7.x86_64
libvirt-2.0.0-8.el7.x86_64
kernel-3.10.0-505.el7.x86_64

it is reproducible ONLY with monitor-mapping=1:2;2:1 and with the resolution of primary monitor lower, then that of secondary monitor. I tried rhel7.2, rhel7.3 and rhel6.8 guests - 100% reproducible on given conditions on all of them. Also tried Win7 guest with ~50% reproducibility.

b) rhel 6.8-z client:

spice-gtk-0.26-7
spice-glib-0.26-7
virt-viewer-2.0-14

it is reproducible ONLY with monitor-mapping=1:2;2:1 and with the resolution of primary monitor lower, then that of secondary monitor. I tried rhel7.2, rhel7.3 and rhel6.8 guests - 100% reproducible on given conditions on all of them. Also tried Win7 guest, where it is not reproducible any more.

guests were established vie rhav-m portal (Red Hat Virtualization Manager Version: 4.0.4.1-0.1.el7ev), but it is reproducible on libvirt guests as well (tested rhel7.3)

considering a strong correlation between this bug and the monitor mapping, can you please retest again with the latest virt-viewer:
virt-viewer-2.0-16.el6

It contains fixes for monitor mapping bugs:

Thanks

Hi Pavel,
I tested the bug reproducibility again with old and with new virt-viewer. New virt-viewer-2.0-16.el6 unfortunately does not solve this bug. Both guest displays are attached to the same monitor if I use monitor-mapping=1:2;2:1 - as stated in bug description.

Client packages:
spice-gtk-0.26-7
spice-glib-0.26-7
virt-viewer-2.0-16

Tested on rhel7.2, rhel 7.3 and rhel 6.8 guests with the same outcome.

I am not sure, client seems to behave fine:

requests correct stuff
(remote-viewer:6687): GSpice-DEBUG: channel-main.c:1077 main-1:0: monitor config: #0 1920x1080+1680+0 @ 32 bpp
(remote-viewer:6687): GSpice-DEBUG: channel-main.c:1077 main-1:0: monitor config: #1 1680x1050+0+0 @ 32 bpp

receives what requested:
(remote-viewer:6687): GSpice-DEBUG: channel-display.c:1732 display-2:0: monitor id: 0, surface id: 0, +1680+0-1920x1080
(remote-viewer:6687): GSpice-DEBUG: channel-display.c:1732 display-2:0: monitor id: 1, surface id: 0, +0+0-1680x1050

to me it looks like something in the desktop environment is messing with window placement
