We are packing it now for Windows, we have this packaged downstream (RHEV), now we're re-working that for upstream. The work is ongoing we need to add to the matrix. Other distributions are starting to package spice now. After that we need to look at other platforms such as Mac OS.
An OS-X client would be great!
Agree, but remember with oVirt you're working with a community project not an end-user product where you can make feature requests. There are interesting options for VNC, most notably NoVNC that could be integrated - but it needs someone to drive this.
Yes, I do realise that - I will help out wherever I can (possibly EL6 port?).
In the mean time there's a relatively straightforward way to launch a VNC client for a VM by using the API. Dan's working on an example of that now that we'll post on the wiki,
I look forward to seeing that.
Already works fine with vncviewer/tigervnc, need to make some adjustments for additional VNC clients, and I'll post it to oVirt wiki
Thanks,
R.
