[ovirt-users] Re: Spice console pixelated noise on display changes

Answering the question for posterity. We found a temporary solution to the described problem. We had a development cluster with a working SPICE console. By comparing packages we have established the differences between working and not working SPICE setup. We have isolated the spice-server package. The installed version was spice-server-0.14.0-2.el7_5.3.x86_64 We downgraded the package to spice-server-0.12.8-2.el7.1.x86_64 and rebooted the nodes in sequence. Now the SPICE console works again.

Since oVirt uses spice it seemed like a good shot to ask fellow admins here in the hope somebody has come across something alike.
