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.

2. Edit the guest, make sure it has spice device and 4 monitors
3. Install qxl driver
4. Restart guest.
5. Extend the desktop to 4 monitors.
6. Right click on desktop, choose screen resolution.

Do you have a reproducer? I have never encountered that bug.

From what I can read in virt-viewer code, it already correctly reports monitor number (thanks to nth-display property, although it is more nth-monitor)

However, I don't think the Windows QXL driver guarantees mapping of nth monitor to nth channel. Moving there for now.
Comment 6 Geyang Kong 2013-05-10 05:46:53 UTC 
Yes, I can still reproduce this. And this time, I got a log file with SPICE_DEBUG=1. I will attach log file and new snapshot later.

I could not reproduce this with spice-guest-tools 0.7.4 (http://www.spice-space.org/download/windows/spice-guest-tools/spice-guest-tools-0.74.exe) running 

The driver is not responsible for spice display channels.

The order of channel creation is implicit by the order of pci card initialization, to make it explicit we need to add a number to the interface (QXLInterface) between qemu and spice.

# Main VGA channel creation
main->..->pc_vga_init->..->qxl_init_primary->qxl_init_common->..->spice_server_add_interface->red_dispatcher_init->red_dispatcher_display_channel_create

# Later via ordering of statements in qemu's main
main->qemu_opts_foreach->device_init_func->qdev_device_add->..->qxl_init_secondary->..->spice_server_add_interface->red_dispatcher_init->red_dispatcher_display_channel_create

Since main ordering can change in the future (red_dispatcher calls are serialized via a pipe) we should add an identifier.

Needs fixes in spice & qemu, moving to spice (will clone later). Already at low priority.
