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
can not see mouse in guest when lanch the guest with virt-viewer, but it can use if there is X windows installed in guest, just can not see it.

Version:
libvirt-1.1.0-1.el7.x86_64
virt-viewer-0.5.6-1.el6.x86_64

How reproducible:
100%

Steps to Reproduce:
1.Prepare a X window installed guest, and start it.

2.Use virt-viewer to connect it:
# virt-viewer guest

3.After guest setup, there is no mouse in guest, but move it can see some place will light and dim, and can click if move to a right place.

Actual results：
As steps

Expected results:
Should see the mouse in guest.

Additional info:
There is another virt-manager bug: 980714, I think they are not the same bug.

Sorry for wrong judgement of exsiting bug 980714, they should be the same root reason causeed:
This only reproduced in the guest with spice+qxl as graphic type, not reproduced in a vnc guest. And the error in qemu/guest.log is the same as the bug https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=980714, so I think it is the same issue displaying in different kinds of component.

Most likely the same as https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=981094
The proper fix belongs to qemu, but I don't know if RHEL7 qemu has the needed patch. However, libvirt 1.1.1 has a workaround for this, so this bug should no longer occur.

Eric, are you still seeing this? I did not hit this when using remote-viewer on RHEL7.

No, I can not reproduce it both in virt-viewer and remote-viewer with package:
libvirt-1.1.1-15.el7.x86_64
qemu-kvm-rhev-1.5.3-21.el7.x86_64

Ok, thanks for confrming! It was probably the same bug as bug #981094
Closing this bug now.
