2.I also tried connect via spice,both works regardless " crtl+alt+delete(below the insert key)" or "crtl+alt+delete(below "3" key)"

Comment 1 Gerd Hoffmann 2012-01-04 14:13:09 UTC
Not reproducable.

Tried virt-manager, works fine.

Tried vncviewer, can't enter ctrl-alt-del directly because it doesn't grab the keyboard and the window manager catches the key combination.  Can hit F8 + pick ctrl-alt-del from the menu though, which has the expected effect.
