Re: [Users] [Spice-devel] oVirt console plans

This output is virtually the same on ovirt and RHEV btw ;) (funny that...) I test with both. For fun I decided tried Spice + usb-tablet on the following, with the below results: Red Hat 7.3 --> Mouse useable Red Hat 9 --> Mouse useable Fedora core 1 - 14 --> Mouse useable Fedora core 15 Mouse useable Fedora core 16 Mouse useable Red Hat Enterprise 3.x --> Mouse useable Red Hat Enterprise 4.x --> Mouse useable Red Hat Enterprise 5.x --> Mouse useable Red Hat Enterpise 6.x --> Mouse useable SLES 10 --> Mouse useable SLES 11 --> Mouse useable SLES 11 SP1 --> Mouse unusable OpenSUSE 11.1 --> Mouse useable OpenSUSE 11.2 --> Mouse useable OpenSUSE 11.3 --> Mouse useable OpenSUSE 11.4 --> Mouse useable Windows 2000 SP4 --> Mouse useable Windows XP --> Mouse useable Windows Vista --> Mouse useable Windows Server 2003 --> Mouse useable Windows Server 2003 R2 --> Mouse useable Windows Server 2008 --> Mouse useable Windows Server 2008 R2 --> Mouse useable Solaris 10 Update9 --> Mouse unusable (still does not work w/solaris) Solaris 11 Express --> Mouse unusable (still does not work w/solaris) Solaris 11 --> Mouse unusable (still does not work w/solaris) Invoked all VMs from the cli on and ovirt and rhev node and used spicec to connect. I invoked each VM like: /usr/libexec/qemu-kvm -M rhel6.2.0 -cpu Nehalem -enable-kvm -m 1024 -smp 1,sockets=1,cores=1,threads=1 -name foobar -boot d -cdrom /temp/M<isoname>.iso -hda /temp/foobar.img -usb -device usb-tablet,id=input0 -spice port=5900,disable-ticketing -k en-us -vga qxl -global qxl-vga.vram_size=67108864 The above results IMHO would say perhaps to add an option perhaps to the RHEV/oVirt VM console config UI to turn on USB-tablet support if desired. - Chris -----Original Message----- From: Hans de Goede [mailto:hdegoede@redhat.com] Sent: Tuesday, January 31, 2012 12:58 PM To: Brown, Chris (GE Healthcare) Cc: Itamar Heim; André Felício; spice-devel(a)lists.freedesktop.org; users(a)ovirt.org Subject: Re: [Spice-devel] [Users] oVirt console plans Hi, On 01/31/2012 05:40 PM, Brown, Chris (GE Healthcare) wrote: e0-0-0,id=ide0-0-0,bootindex=2 -drive if=none,media=cdrom,id=drive-ide0-1-0,readonly=on,format=raw -device ide-drive,bus=ide.1,unit=0,drive=drive-ide0-1-0,id=ide0-1-0,bootindex=1 -netdev tap,fd=27,id=hostnet0,vhost=on,vhostfd=28 -device virtio-net-pci,netdev=hostnet0,id=net0,mac=00:1a:4a:39:6f:01,bus=pci.0,addr=0x3 -chardev socket,id=charchannel0,path=/var/lib/libvirt/qemu/channels/winxp.com.redhat.rhevm.vdsm,server,nowait -device virtserialport,bus=virtio-serial0.0,nr=1,chardev=charchannel0,id=channel0,name=com.redhat.rhevm.vdsm -chardev spicevmc,id=charchannel1,name=vdagent -device virtserialport,bus=virtio-serial0.0,nr=2,chardev=charchannel1,id=channel1,name=com.redhat.spice.0 -usb -spice port=5900,tls-port=5901,addr=0,x509-dir=/etc/pki/vdsm/libvirt-spice,tls-channel=main,tls-channel=inputs -k en-us -vga qxl -global qxl-vga.vram_size=67108864 -device AC97,id=sound0,bus=pci.0,addr=0x4 Thanks, that explains, no usb-tablet (which is ok for spice since the agent is better, and the usb-tablet causes a significant cpu usage even when idle), but also no ps2 mouse, so no mouse emulation at all. I believe this is an ovirt bug. Regards, Hans
