The first guest display was re-enabled after a guest reboot even when it was previously disabled on the guest. This update removes the fixed association between the the main guest window and a specific guest display number, which prevents the problem from occurring.

Hi jjongsma:

I found a problem, but I'm not sure it's same with this or not.
Could you help me to check it?

I test with virt-viewer-0.6.0-7.el6

Steps:
1. use virt-viewer to connect a rhel spice guest
#virt-viewer $vm
2. enable 4 displays
Click "View" -> "Displays" -> "Display(1,2,3,4)"
3. disable display 2
Click "View" -> "Displays" -> "Display 2"
4. run "xrandr" in guest
5. close virt-viewer
6. reconnect guest with virt-viewer
#virt-viewer $vm

Result:
Step 4, after disable display 2, xrandr in guest still show 4 displays.
Step 6, after reconnect the guest, 4 displays will come out.

if it's a different problem, I'll file a new one to track it.
Thanks
