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.

remote-viewer --spice-debug

Description of problem:
This issue occurs with dual monitor set up.
When the remote-viewer is executed in window mode in order to connect to a VM (e.g. through RHEVM) and then switched to full-screen mode (using Shift+F11 or through RV menu), the full-screen resolution of guest system is set to a sum of both client monitor resolutions.
In my case the guest resolution is set to 2560x1024 (as I have two monitors 1280x1024 each).

This doesn't happen when remote-viewer is launched with --full-screen parameter. In this case the resolution in full-screen matches the client's one.

When tested with previous version of remote-viewer (virt-viewer-0.5.2-15.el6.x86_64) the issue didn't occur.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
virt-viewer-0.5.2-16.el6.x86_64

How reproducible:
Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Have a dual monitor client machine set up
2. Set up a VM with one monitor and spice-vdagent running
3. Connect to it using remote-viewer in window mode
4. Switch to full-screen mode (Shift+F11)
  
Actual results:
The guest full-screen resolution is set to a sum of both client monitor resolutions but displayed over one monitor only.

Expected results:
The guest full-screen resolution is set to a value matching the native client monitor resolution.

I can't reproduce.

What is the guest?

Can you try against current virt-viewer-0.5.2-18.el6_4.2.x86_64 ? It has some multi-monitor fixes.

thanks

Comment 7 Milan Barta 2013-05-15 10:14:41 UTC
I've tested on both Windows and RHEL guests and looks like the bug's been fixed in virt-viewer-0.5.2-18.el6_4.2.

I suppose the bug can be closed.
