Description Wade Mealing 2007-07-25 05:04:43 UTC 
Description of problem:

There are scrollbars in the virt-manager "Virtual Machine Console" that can't be
used.  The window is unable to be resized smaller than the current machines
graphical view, and the scrollbar does not disappear when this is larger than
the actual window.

Either have them work, or remove them all together.

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Install a text or graphical mode RHEL, using virt-manager.
2. Note scrollbar
3. Attempt to resize , as you are doing other things in your Domain-0
  
Actual results:

Window can't resize.

Expected results:

Window to resize, or scrollbars to not exist.

Fixed upstream to remove the scrollbars & make the window properly non-resizable
- just honour the VNC console size. Will include in rawhide soon.

Daniel,

Rock on, currently runing F8T3 + some.  It seems to be gone.

I have a postbox style (space above and below) the window now, but it makes me
feel like i'm running in widescreen mode ;)

I'll close the bug.
