Description of problem: To control the focus, I want to use keyboard shortcuts. But <Shift> + <Tab> is unusable for HVM guest domain on the viewer of virt-manager, <Tab> is usable though. virt-viewer has the same result. This problem does not occur with PV domain. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): from RPM (RHEL5.1 RC): kernel-xen (kernel-xen-2.6.18-52.el5) xen (xen-3.0.3-41.el5) from cvs: virt-manager (changeset 637) virt-viewr (changeset 16) How reproducible: always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Create a HVM guest domain 2. Open the guest domain by using virt-manager or virt-viewer Actual results: I cannot move the focus by <Shift> + <Tab> Expected results: I can move the focus by <Shift> + <Tab> Additional info: If there is other unusable keyboard shortcut, I will report it here.

This request was evaluated by Red Hat Product Management for inclusion in a Red Hat Enterprise Linux maintenance release. Product Management has requested further review of this request by Red Hat Engineering, for potential inclusion in a Red Hat Enterprise Linux Update release for currently deployed products. This request is not yet committed for inclusion in an Update release.
I think that the cause of this problem is not virt-viewer or gtk-vnc, occurred by another module. Let me tell you why I thought. I debugged how the value of "keyvalue" was set at gtk_vnc (gdk_keymap_translate_keyboard_state() in key_event() at vncdisplay.c), and I compared the result of them: shortcut Domain keyvalue --------------------------------------------- <Shift><TAB> HVM (unusable) ISO_Left_Tab <Shift><TAB> PV (usable) ISO_Left_Tab But the setting value is same between HVM and PV. Do you have any idea ?

This issue still occur on X86-64 platform, <Shift> + <Tab> do not work in the application of the guest. Both virt-manager and virt-viewer have this issue, and it can be repoduced on all KVM, xen FV, xen PV base guest. Package version: gtk-vnc-0.3.8-2.el5 virt-manager-0.6.1-5.el5 virt-viewer-0.0.2-3.el5 Steps: 1, Open a KVM, xen FV or Xen PV guest. 2, Connect to it by virt-manager or virt-viewer. 3, Open a application or system configure utility, try the <Shift><Tab>. Actual Results: <Shift><Tab> do not work. Expect Results: The focus move to previous place when <Shift> + <Tab> pressed. Additional info: <Shift><Tab> works when the physical machines connected by vncviewer.
There was a regression in the fix upstream. Fixed it again with http://git.gnome.org/cgit/gtk-vnc/commit/?id=b0a5d4d92884c4380bfbd23de6520ddbf41d91ca
