Affects Fedora versions as well. +++ This bug was initially created as a clone of Bug #754559 +++ Created attachment 534081 [details] unnecessary black stripes Description of problem: SSIA Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): all versions up to latest virt-manager-0.9.0-8.fc17 How reproducible: always Steps to Reproduce: 1. run a guest with a console in window 2. make sure that qxl driver and spice-vdagent up & running within the guest 2. make sure that guest supports client native resolution 4. make sure that in console window, option View -> Scale Display -> Always is checked 5. switch console window to fullscreen Actual results: 1. window is switched to full screen but guest resolution is changed to lower than client-native (e.g. to 1440x900 on 1600x900 client - screenshot - or 1600x900 on 1680x1050 client), leaving black stripes at the edge of the screen 2. when user increases guest resolution to client-native, black stripes are not eliminated, but guest display will overflow leaving some part of guest display hidden (see screenshot 2) Expected results: guest is resized to the same resolution as client Additional info: another symptom: when window is resized so that spice-gtk widget can occupy ~1400x1000 pixels, 1280x720 is picked instead of bigger 1280x960, and again, when user increases relution manually, the client canvas is not resized but part of guest screen is not displayed at all. spicy does not suffer these problems so it might make sense to compare the implementation of spice-gtk windget in both clients --- Additional comment from djasa on 2011-11-16 21:40:56 CET --- Created attachment 534082 [details] right edge of guest screen hidden under black stripe after manual resize to client resolution
This is fixed in virt-manager version in updates-testing
Unless I misunderstand, I am still seeing this issue in F16 with virt-manager-0.9.1-2.fc16.
Hmm this also seems to be happening to me in F19 with virt-manager-0.10.0-4.fc19.noarch Is there some additional trick that needs to be done/used to make this work?
Still happens on: virt-manager-0.10.0-5.git1ffcc0cc.fc19.noarch resolution is not changed inside guest, but only the image is scaled, in an ugly and blurred way. Spicy does that correctly, see bug #754559.

That's referenced bug is a feature request for something totally different: virt-manager and guest coordinating to automatically change resolution of the VM. This bug is about manually changing the resolution
I can't reproduce the original reported issue with stock virt-manager on F20 with an F20 guest. From the original report: set scaling->always fullscreen set guest resoltion to same resolution as host monitor guest fills up entire monitor screen Can people confirm that they are following those steps? What guest OS is being used?
