Description

This happens because -f/--full-screen takes an optional 'autoconf' argument, so if -f is followed by a non-parameter string (ie one not starting with -), it expects it to be 'autoconf', and fails if it's something else (for example spice://yyyy). I don't see an easy way to handle both the optional argument, and the '-f spice://yyyy" case using the GOption API :-/ For what it's worth, 'remote-viewer -f -- spice://yyyy' works imho, comment #1 is the right solution. should we close that bug? Please add the "-f --" hint to --help output / man page. (In reply to comment #6) > Please add the "-f --" hint to --help output / man page. sent patch to ML: https://www.redhat.com/archives/virt-tools-list/2013-May/msg00020.html I can reproduce this issue with:
virt-viewer-0.5.2-18.el6_4.2.x86_64
# remote-viewer -f spice://localhost:5901
Invalid full-screen argument: spice://localhost:5901
Run 'remote-viewer --help' to see a full list of available command line options
# man remote-viewer
-f, --full-screen
Start with the window maximised to fullscreen
Tested with:
virt-viewer-0.5.6-1.el6.x86_64
# man remote-viewer
-f, --full-screen=<auto-conf>
Start with the windows maximized to fullscreen.
If the argument ’auto-conf’ is given, the remote display will be reconfigured to match at
best the client physical monitor configuration on initialization, by enabling or disabling
extra monitors as necessary. This is currently implemented by the Spice backend only.
# remote-viewer --full-screen=auto-conf spice://localhost:5902
# remote-viewer -f -- spice://localhost:5902
The above 2 commands work well,so move the bug to VERIFIED.
