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.

Description of problem:
I have a 4 display guest running (W7-64) and I disconnect display 4 and then select apply or OK. As soon as that occurs the displays refresh and I still have display 4. If I click "save changes" my selection of disconnect display is changed back to "extend desktop to this display".

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
Client: RHEL 6.4 64bit
virt-viewer-0.5.2-18.el6_4.2.x86_64
spice-gtk-0.14-7.el6.x86_64

Guest: Windows 7 Enterprise 64bit
RHEV-Tools 3.2.5 with vdagent-win-0.1-17

How reproducible:
Every time.

Steps to Reproduce:
1.Start connection to to that has 4 displays enabled.
2.When connected verify you have 4 displays.
3.Enter screen res utility, slect display 4, checge to disconne3ct this display and select ok or apply.
4.Then select keep changes and notice the display is still there and selection was reverted.
  
Actual results:
See steps.

Expected results:
Display disabled and selection retained.

Additional info:

there has been a bit of back and forth, since there is no reliable way to know if a monitor is disabled by user settings or normally during reboot, we settled on keeping the display windows opened in bug 918997. Hence, the best way to remove a monitor is from virt-viewer display menu.

the bug has been best described in 868970 before

reopening since rebase will improve behaviour

As the result of re-base, the rhel client behavior will match the one in mingw-virt-viewer
