proposed patch
is attached patch ok? s/initilialization/initialization The " enabling or disabling extra monitors when necessary" could be clearer I think, I don't really understand what this is about by just reading it. So what about just: If given the argument 'auto-conf', the remote server will be reconfigured to try to match the client physical monitor configuration when starting the connection. This is currently implemented by the Spice backend only. Maybe " If given..., the guest display configuration will be changed to try to match ..." ? Marc-André, can you send a patch to virt-tools-list so that we get this in? I can reproduce this bug:
version:
# rpm -qa virt-viewer
virt-viewer-0.5.2-18.el6_4.2.x86_64
steps:
# man remote-viewer
result:
...
-f, --full-screen
Start with the window maximised to fullscreen
...
Verify:
version:
# rpm -qa virt-viewer
virt-viewer-0.5.6-1.el6.x86_64
Steps:
# man remote-viewer
result:
...
-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.
...
As the result, the bug is fixed.
