Virt-manager can't show OS icons of win7/win8/ubuntu guest.

How reproducible:
100%

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Prepare healthy win7/win8/ubuntu12.04/rhel6/rhel7 guest.
2. Launch virt-manager and wait for a while until all new detecting domains removed. It means libguestfs have detected all the guest.
3. Check if OS icons shown before guest's name in virt-manager main window .

Actual results:
As the attached screenshot shows,
1.Icon display work for RHEL(RHEL6 & RHEL7)
2.Icon display didn't work for Ubuntu/win7/win8.

Expected results:
1.Icon display should work for RHEL/Ubuntu guests and certain windows guests (such as XP, win7, win8) .

Additional info:
1.I have attached the output of "virt-inspector -v -x -a /var/lib/libvirt/images/DISK.IMG" for each guest's disk image that isn't working.

Comment 5 Richard W.M. Jones 2016-07-05 13:07:33 UTC
I have posted patches which fix some issues:

https://www.redhat.com/archives/libguestfs/2016-July/msg00012.html
https://www.redhat.com/archives/libguestfs/2016-July/msg00013.html

Unfortunately virt-manager asks for high quality icons, and none of
the guests here have high quality icons, so these patches will *not*
change what is shown in virt-manager.

https://github.com/virt-manager/virt-manager/blob/master/virtManager/inspection.py#L227

It's the best we can do here as we're not legally allowed to include
high quality icons in libguestfs or virt-manager itself.

Hi rjones,
  When I try to verify this bug, I find that I can't see the OS icon column in virt-manager (see attachment). I don't know how to make the OS icon to show out. Could you help me? Thanks in advance.

It looks like python-libguestfs is missing, can you please try installing it (and restarting virt-manager)?

Comment 12 Richard W.M. Jones 2016-08-02 14:26:33 UTC
See comment 5:

"Unfortunately virt-manager asks for high quality icons, and none of
the guests here have high quality icons, so these patches will *not*
change what is shown in virt-manager."

If you want to verify this fix, you'll need to use the
virt-inspector program:

  virt-inspector -a /var/lib/libvirt/images/<DISK.IMG>

If it shows an <icon> element containing a bunch of base64
data (actually an encoded PNG file) then it's working.
