Comment 2 tingting zheng 2012-11-29 03:12:20 UTC

Yes,if you put -f before spice://localhost?port=5900,there is error,there is bug 843103 on rhel6,which is not fixed.
Tried on rhel7,put -f behind spice://localhost?port=5900,it can be connected successfully.

Comment 4 Christophe Fergeau 2014-01-24 17:49:26 UTC

Already fixed in RHEL7 builds (upstream commit was v0.5.7~56)

Comment 5 Cui Lei 2014-02-10 07:37:41 UTC

I have test this issue with:
virt-viewer-0.5.7-6.el7.x86_64

Both of below two scenario work well. No error message pop up
[root@localhost ~]# remote-viewer -f -- spice://localhost:5900
[root@localhost ~]# remote-viewer --full-screen=auto-conf spice://localhost:5900
