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 hmiles 2013-06-28 20:29:15 UTC 
Description of problem:
Spice windows resizes to span 4 monitors wide after a "yum update".

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
rhevm-3.2.0-11.33.el6ev.noarch
spice-vdagent-0.12.0-4.el6_4.1.x86_64

How reproducible:
100%

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Create a new Server guest as RHEL 6 x86_64
2. Install this guest with RHEL Server 6.4
3. Register the system and then run "yum update"

Actual results:
Packages will update and when it reaches the last package the Spice window will immediately resize to span 4 windows worth of space.
To resolve close out the Spice window and restart the guest.

Expected results:
Spice window would not resize and a restart would not be necessary.

Additional info:
Opened this BZ under spice-qxl-driver-win but if this is incorrect please change it.

David - is this on the right component?
Comment 3 Alon Levy 2014-05-04 16:12:25 UTC 
I see xorg-x11-drv-qxl was not updated ,is that correct? based on that and the fact that spice-vdagent was updated I'm assigning to spice-vdagent.
Comment 5 Marc-Andre Lureau 2014-06-04 12:34:42 UTC 
do I understand correctly that the first display get resized to very large size?

can you provide "xrandr" command output from client?

also xrandr from guest before updating, and after updating.

thanks
Comment 7 Marc-Andre Lureau 2014-06-17 20:54:42 UTC 
Is anyone able to reproduce? I can't. It may have been an old virt-viewer bug?
Comment 9 Marc-Andre Lureau 2014-10-09 09:42:36 UTC 
closing for now as it can't be reproduced, feel free to reopen if you have further details
