Comment 1 Bill Sanford 2013-04-03 16:19:32 UTC 
This was tested with clients in Westford and Brno.
Comment 2 Libor Spevak 2013-04-04 08:58:46 UTC 
Current SPICE console support is under refactoring. New code version should be merged d/s today (ASAP).
Comment 3 Michal Skrivanek 2013-04-04 15:15:15 UTC 
will be fixed in next build. please see bug 843410. 
workaround: change the default handling to "Plugin" in "ClientConsoleModeDefault" parameter in vdc_options table (not engine-config is broken for this one right now so you need to modify the db table directly ATM)
Comment 5 Cheryn Tan 2013-04-07 23:00:58 UTC 
Also present on Windows XP, using internet explorer 8.
Comment 7 Michal Skrivanek 2013-04-12 09:37:37 UTC 
the default is now the same behavior as 3.1. Please verify on sf13.1.

It should open plugin on Win/IE setups. On Win/Firefox or any other unsupperted combination (and also VNC in all cases) it should download console.vv
