RHEL Engineering is moving the tracking of its product development work on RHEL 6 through RHEL 9 to Red Hat Jira (issues.redhat.com). If you're a Red Hat customer, please continue to file support cases via the Red Hat customer portal. If you're not, please head to the "RHEL project" in Red Hat Jira and file new tickets here. Individual Bugzilla bugs in the statuses "NEW", "ASSIGNED", and "POST" are being migrated throughout September 2023. Bugs of Red Hat partners with an assigned Engineering Partner Manager (EPM) are migrated in late September as per pre-agreed dates. Bugs against components "kernel", "kernel-rt", and "kpatch" are only migrated if still in "NEW" or "ASSIGNED". If you cannot log in to RH Jira, please consult article #7032570. That failing, please send an e-mail to the RH Jira admins at rh-issues@redhat.com to troubleshoot your issue as a user management inquiry. The email creates a ServiceNow ticket with Red Hat. Individual Bugzilla bugs that are migrated will be moved to status "CLOSED", resolution "MIGRATED", and set with "MigratedToJIRA" in "Keywords". The link to the successor Jira issue will be found under "Links", have a little "two-footprint" icon next to it, and direct you to the "RHEL project" in Red Hat Jira (issue links are of type "https://issues.redhat.com/browse/RHEL-XXXX", where "X" is a digit). This same link will be available in a blue banner at the top of the page informing you that that bug has been migrated.

Will test later w/ rhel6.4 guest over spice&qxl and update result.
Comment 8 Qian Guo 2013-04-09 06:09:16 UTC 
Test this w/ rhel6.4 guest (x86_64 and x86), not hit this issue:

Components:
Host:
# rpm -q qemu-kvm
qemu-kvm-0.12.1.2-2.295.el6.x86_64
# uname -r
2.6.32-279.el6.x86_64

Guest_RHEL6.4x86:
]# uname -r
2.6.32-358.el6.i686
# rpm -qa |grep flash
flash-plugin-11.2.202.275-release.i386
# rpm -qa |grep firefox
firefox-10.0.12-1.el6_3.i686

Guest_RHEL6.4x86_64
# uname -r
2.6.32-358.el6.x86_64
# rpm -qa |grep flash
flash-plugin-11.2.202.275-release.x86_64
# rpm -qa |grep firefox
firefox-10.0.12-1.el6_3.x86_64


1.Both test w/ vnc&std and spice&qxl, 
2.use virt-viewer> remote-viewer to launch guests 
3.Use firefox w/ flash-plugin to play video of 'http://www.youku.com'.

Results:
Can play smoothly, and not hit any problem, when I use mouse to select the frame of the video, it can play well too, so for rhel6.4 guest, has not this problem.

Good, so it got fixed in 6.4, probably it is just a dup of some other bug.
