This looks quite similar to bug 1039132 (which then leads to Bug 1008965) It does look similar, but both of those bugs are reported in fedora and not fixed in gnome-desktop3 in rhel (seems like this is currently reported against wrong component) (In reply to Tomas Jamrisko from comment #3) > It does look similar, but both of those bugs are reported in fedora and not > fixed in gnome-desktop3 in rhel (seems like this is currently reported > against wrong component) 1. It is not a regression 2. Spice-gtk is part of the client client. If you see the same behavior when connect to rhel 7 vm from rhel or windows client, and this problem does not exist when connect to the rhel 6 or win VMs, than the source of the problem is rhel 7 ) gnome or qxl ). If believe it is a blocker, please provide justification. Switching this to gnome-desktop3 according to comment 2 and BZ#1008965 I'm failing to reproduce this here, with an install from ~end of february. If you are still seeing it, can you provide some more detailed reproduction hints ? I've been resizing my vm display a lot, and gone to the overview and back a bunch of times. Pointer never disappeared. Updated the virtual machine to yesterday's nightly and it's still happening. I managed to reproduce this more consistently when cursor is outside of the remote-viewer window while the resolution adjustment takes place. So a more accurate reproducer: Using remote-viewer connect to a RHEL7 VM (and make sure vdagent is up and running) Reduce size of remote-viewer window with mouse and dragging any of the edges/corners. As you release LMB move your cursor completely out of remote-viewer Wait for the resolution to adjust Move your cursor back into remote-viewer window. This reproducer worked every time I tried... still not reproducing here, with a current rhel7 host and current rhel7 guest. following the instructions in comment 8 to the letter. So the fixes alluded to in the upstream gnome bug are actually for a newer version of gnome-desktop that gets idle time in a completely different way. They just aren't applicable for gnome 3.8 / RHEL 7. There was an X server bug that manifested in a very similar way, but those fixes are already in the RHEL 7 X server. So, the problem could be in the X server, gnome-settings-daemon, gnome-desktop, or even QXL, since it's going to take some dedicated debugging time to figure out and we're already in blocker-only mode, this is probably going to have to wait until 7.1. It's not reliably reproducible either, so that somewhat mitigates the severity of the issue. There was a bug in the QXL driver that was causing this. Please test with an up-to-date RHEL7 installation. The cursor can now temporarily disappear when it leaves and reenters window while resizing takes place. It reappears after the resize completes. (In reply to Tomas Jamrisko from comment #12) > The cursor can now temporarily disappear when it leaves and reenters window > while resizing takes place. > It reappears after the resize completes. That would point to another bug in the QXL driver. Thanks for testing.

Thanks for testing. that would be bug 1030531 *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of bug 1030531 *** |
