spice-gtk may crash with "Couldn't find current GL or GLX context", the fix is upstream. Let's backport it. +++ This bug was initially created as a clone of Bug #1367660 +++ --- Additional comment from Christophe Fergeau on 2017-05-29 05:43:45 EDT --- (In reply to Joachim Frieben from comment #8) > With Fedora 26, even this is no longer > possible: gnome-boxes simply crashes when clicking the corresponding > thumbnail. I had to backport https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=780963 in order to be able to click on a thumbnail without Boxes going back to the overview. After that, I indeed get a crash with "gnome-boxes: Couldn't find current GLX or EGL context.", dunno if that is what you are seeing? The same thing happens with virt-viewer, so that would indicate a regression somewhere else in the stack. --- Additional comment from Joachim Frieben on 2017-05-29 08:22:16 EDT --- (In reply to Christophe Fergeau from comment #9) Correct, I do also see this message "gnome-boxes: Couldn't find current GLX or EGL context." issued to the shell from which gnome-boxes was launched.

I have spotted this issue under Fedora 26 but not under Fedora 25. (?)
I'll do builds for f26/rawhide as well
(In reply to Cole Robinson from comment #4) Build spice-gtk-0.33-5.fc26 does fix the original issue on Fedora 26. However, both with VirGL-enabled Fedora 25 and Fedora 26 virtual guests launched via 'virsh start ..', no working mouse pointer is available in gnome-boxes: either it is absent or when it is present or suddenly appears (then two mouse pointers are displayed), respectively, it stays at a fixed position or merely shows a loose correlation with the host's mouse pointer.
Known issue with wayland and server mouse. If you have spice-vdagent installed in your guest, everything should work fine (?)
(In reply to Christophe Fergeau from comment #6) Both virtual guests were installed using the corresponding Fedora 25 and 26 Workstation live media and do (of course) include spice-vdagent by default.

Some of this is discussed in https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1285378.
(In reply to David H. Gutteridge from comment #8) Since placement of the mouse pointer in a VirGL enabled Fedora 25 or Fedora 26 virtual guest works correctly when a Fedora 25 host is used, I tend to assume a regression in Fedora 26. I therefore do not see your point.

I therefore do not see your point. Well, my reasons for referencing the other bug were: (1) It's being used as a catch-all for similar mouse pointer issues that have been reported to date against Fedora 23, 24, and 25. While what you're describing is presumably a new regression somewhere, the effect is like what I've seen in other setups, so it's perhaps related somehow. (2) It includes general discussion about underlying improvements that could be made, which may be relevant to your issue.
