+++ This bug was initially created as a clone of Bug #845517 +++ Description of problem: Connecting to a VM with vdagent running and trying to zoom in beyoned normal size results in a frantic behaviour where the window tries to resize itself, and vdagent tries to fit the new window size. After a few iterations virt-viewer window ends up smaller, guests resolution decreases, and vdagent wins by keeping 1:1 pixel ratio Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): virt-viewer-0.5.2-9.el6.i386 virt-viewer-0.5.2-9.el6.x86_64 spice-gtk-0.11-11.el6_3.1 How reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Connect to a VM with vdagent 2. Increase guests resolution at least 1280x720 2. Zoom In Actual results: (see description) Expected results: Virt-viewer windows increases its size, VM retains its original resolution

I can reproduce this issue with: virt-viewer-0.5.2-9.el6.x86_64 spice-gtk-0.11-11.el6.x86_64 spice-vdagent-0.8.1-3.el6.x86_64 Tried with: virt-viewer-0.5.2-16.el6.x86_64 spice-gtk-0.14-5.el6.x86_64 spice-vdagent-0.12.0-2.el6.x86_64 Steps: 1. Install a RHEL6.3 guest with gnome. 2. Make sure guest has spice+qxl graphic devices and spicevmc channel exists. 3. Start the guest and make sure spice-vdagentd service is running in guest. 4. Run virt-viewer $guestname. 5. Increase guests resolution at least 1280x720 6. Zoom In,try to zoom in beyoned normal size,Virt-viewer windows increases its size, VM retains its original resolution.(repeat several times) Step6 works well,so change the status of the bug to VERIFIED.
