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.

Comment 2 RHEL Program Management 2013-11-11 08:05:36 UTC 
This request was not resolved in time for the current release.
Red Hat invites you to ask your support representative to
propose this request, if still desired, for consideration in
the next release of Red Hat Enterprise Linux.
Comment 3 Gerd Hoffmann 2014-04-17 08:11:26 UTC 
Can you attach a screenshot?
Do you have qxl guest drivers installed in the guest?  If so, which version?
Comment 4 Qunfang Zhang 2014-04-17 08:47:25 UTC 
Hi, Maosheng

Could you give a help to test this bug and reply Gerd's comment 3 as flang is taking leave? 

Thanks,
Qunfang

I use the command line of comment 0 to boot a win8-32 guest for 10 times and not hit this issue.

Ping?  Any news?  See comment #3 question.
If it doesn't reproduce any more (comment #5) I'll go close it as notabug.

Hi, Gerd

flang is taking leave these months and Huiqing helped re-test comment 3 but could not reproduce this issue.  Thanks.
