Description of problem: When a Windows KVM guest has the QXL video driver installed, there is no compression setting that prevents the rendered display from turning either upside down or into a garbled mess. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): kimchi-1.5.1-5.fc25.noarch spice-html5-0.1.7-1.fc24.noarch How reproducible: every time Steps to Reproduce: 1. log into kimchi 2. launch console of Win7 x64 guest with QXL video and latest virtio drivers 3. Actual results: either complete or multiple, isolated upside down graphics Expected results: Normal graphics. Additional info: Github Kimchi issue about the problem: https://github.com/kimchi-project/kimchi/issues/642 Bugzilla spice-html5/oVirt bug 1014066 discussed the problem, and then closed it, but the problem remains. I also tried a random branch "topdown" referenced here: https://lists.freedesktop.org/archives/spice-devel/2016-January/026170.html https://cgit.freedesktop.org/~pgrunt/spice-html5/?h=topdown but while it did correct the upside down problem, other pieces turn into a garbled mess. The only solution I have it so change from the QXL driver, which isn't exactly the most desirable solution. I don't know what is in the oVirt Windows Guest Tools (WGT) 3.6.5 that supposedly fixed the problem in bug 1014066 but I'm unable to produce a fix using the latest windows VirtIO drivers iso.
This message is a reminder that Fedora 24 is nearing its end of life. Approximately 2 (two) weeks from now Fedora will stop maintaining and issuing updates for Fedora 24. It is Fedora's policy to close all bug reports from releases that are no longer maintained. At that time this bug will be closed as EOL if it remains open with a Fedora 'version' of '24'. Package Maintainer: If you wish for this bug to remain open because you plan to fix it in a currently maintained version, simply change the 'version' to a later Fedora version. Thank you for reporting this issue and we are sorry that we were not able to fix it before Fedora 24 is end of life. If you would still like to see this bug fixed and are able to reproduce it against a later version of Fedora, you are encouraged change the 'version' to a later Fedora version prior this bug is closed as described in the policy above. Although we aim to fix as many bugs as possible during every release's lifetime, sometimes those efforts are overtaken by events. Often a more recent Fedora release includes newer upstream software that fixes bugs or makes them obsolete.
