Description Joshua Rosen 2016-10-15 20:19:37 UTC
Description of problem: When running over ssh the graphical console crashes virt-manager. The console works when running virt-manager locally. 


Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):


How reproducible: 100%


Steps to Reproduce:
1. ssh into remote machine
2. su and then launch virt-manager
3. on a running VM select console.

Actual results: virt-manager crashes immediatly


Expected results: should display the graphical console


Additional info: Doesn't crash when running locally. 
My workstation is running F24, my servers run F24 or Scientfic Linux 6.8. Virt-manager is fine on SL6.8, also on a remote session to Fedora 19. Doesn't work on Fedora 24 servers.

Seen here too, dmesg lists:

 traps: virt-manager[23475] trap int3 ip:7f98f5b9215b sp:7ffcf91caec0 error:0 in libglib-2.0.so.0.4800.2[7f98f5b42000+10d000]

$ rpm -q virt-manager

$ uname -r

Local machine is Fedora 24 with KDE desktop.

Comment 3 Joshua Rosen 2016-10-19 18:03:42 UTC
My workstation is F24 with the Mate desktop.

Comment 4 Cole Robinson 2016-12-13 17:14:47 UTC
Can anyone still reproduce? If so, run 'virt-manager --no-fork' on the remote host and see if there's any error messages printed on the console (I'm wondering if this is a dupe of bug 1380339)

Comment 5 Cole Robinson 2016-12-13 18:09:08 UTC
Actually I'm pretty sure now that this is a dup of bug 1380339, which looks to be fixed upstream and also in f24 spice-gtk 0.32-3, so it should be fixed with latest packages. If anyone is still hitting it, please reopen 1380339
