RHEL Engineering is moving the tracking of its product development work on RHEL 6 through RHEL 9 to Red Hat Jira (issues.redhat.com). If you're a Red Hat customer, please continue to file support cases via the Red Hat customer portal. If you're not, please head to the "RHEL project" in Red Hat Jira and file new tickets here. Individual Bugzilla bugs in the statuses "NEW", "ASSIGNED", and "POST" are being migrated throughout September 2023. Bugs of Red Hat partners with an assigned Engineering Partner Manager (EPM) are migrated in late September as per pre-agreed dates. Bugs against components "kernel", "kernel-rt", and "kpatch" are only migrated if still in "NEW" or "ASSIGNED". If you cannot log in to RH Jira, please consult article #7032570. That failing, please send an e-mail to the RH Jira admins at rh-issues@redhat.com to troubleshoot your issue as a user management inquiry. The email creates a ServiceNow ticket with Red Hat. Individual Bugzilla bugs that are migrated will be moved to status "CLOSED", resolution "MIGRATED", and set with "MigratedToJIRA" in "Keywords". The link to the successor Jira issue will be found under "Links", have a little "two-footprint" icon next to it, and direct you to the "RHEL project" in Red Hat Jira (issue links are of type "https://issues.redhat.com/browse/RHEL-XXXX", where "X" is a digit). This same link will be available in a blue banner at the top of the page informing you that that bug has been migrated.
Description of problem:
When I have the settings of "-vga qxl -device qxl -device qxl" in the virt-viewer menu, I have "Display" 1-4 in the View -> Displays showing and I can choose "Display 4" as a valid display option, when in fact, I should only have 3 displays. When I change the settings to "-vga qxl -device qxl" I get the appropriate number of displays in the virt-viewer menu.

Hi,
You mean that you configure the guest with only 3 video devices, but there are 4 displays in the menu list, right?
But I can not reproduce the bug with:
virt-viewer-0.5.6-7.el6.x86_64 or virt-viewer-0.5.6-8.el6.x86_64
Steps:
1. Install a win7 guest with spice+qxl+spicevmc
2. Configure the guest with 3 qxl video device.
3. # virt-viewer win7, check the menu list View-> Display
Result:
There is noly 3 displays.
CongDong, there are multiple bugs open on multi-monitor. A co-worker in Westford also sees this behavior. I will verify this once it is "ON_QA."
