Re: [Users] Can't open ovirt console using Spice or VNC - help!

I did not see that and it works, thank you!

Looks like I need some UI driver help though. Running the script actually helped me get to the root cause... Can't access the host name error. Of course it couldn't, I don't expose that host name outside the ovirt network. I was on my wireless network. Once I plugged into the ovirt net it worked. Duh! Do you know of any spice graphic packages that don't need to be compiled?

Cheers!

No VM IP or host name (unless I'm missing something)... I actually find this quite unfriendly. I know similar issues have been discussed previously, but none have solved my problem.
