my desktop system is running centos6 with downloaded firefox 10. i downloaded and compiled spice-xpi 2.7. i can interact with the console one time, then i have to log out of the portal and back in again in order to get the icon and popup menu to not be greyed out anymore.
cc-ing spice-devel for hints on logs you should look at It should be fixed by commit made today (a while ago) Could you recompiled/apply patch?
so i have a few questions:
1. is this just an issue of using an unsupported browser?
FF10 would be the long term stable firefox release, so most likely it will be the focus for support actually.
2. ie9 seems to be supported, but i obviously need something more to be able to view the console. i don't get an error, so i'm not sure what i should install. the spice viewer i find at spice-space needs libraries and the libraries there are just a zip file. does something need to go on the server to auto-download code?
you need to place an activex of spice. spice-devel - any status on availability of source or binary form of it for community?
3. i figured i'd try vnc, but in that case the icon and menu option are always greyed out. just trying vnc to the appropriate host requires a password and none of the ones i'd suspect seem to work. is there a default? or some way to find the password?
currently only to set it via the API/SDK/CLI.
4. i saw some vague discussion of display networks in the manual, but nothing in the interface seems to jump out at me. it seems like for most uses, a simple web based console is what is needed. java or active-x (or javascript/canvas magic). is this something that is in the commercial version, but not the free one?
display network is to choose which network on the host should be used. it is a cluster level option on the network. only relevant if you configure multiple logical networks at DC/Cluster level.
5. or am i just missing something painfully obvious?
