Description Olivier Fourdan 2018-03-08 13:28:52 UTC 
+++ This bug was initially created as a clone of Bug #1512564 +++

Description of problem:
Same as bug 1540056, gtk-vnc has the same code and requires the same fix.

When running on Xwayland, the keycode mapping property is not available,
which causes unknown keycode mapping errors and the keyboard doesn't
work.

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

How reproducible:
100%

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Run virt-manager with X11 backend under Wayland/Xwayland
   GDK_BACKEND=x11 virt-manager

2. Connect to a virtual machine using VNC

Actual results:
1. I can't input user name and password on login page.
2. I can input with keyboard for vnc guest.

Expected results:
Keyboard works.

Additional info:

A patch for gtk-vnc has been posted to address this issue in bug 1512564
