Re: [Users] Spice plugin for firefox
Thanks Itamar - thats very useful information
Ill try and find information on how to "set a password"
Its basically a bog standard installation - is there no password normally? Is the password
required only for connecting to the console via the command line spicec client?
How does the IE/Firefox spice plugin work in this case - as it doesnt prompt for any
passowrd..
I would have assumed that the console session (weather using spice or vnc) would load with
no password - similar to how console sessions work in vSphere, KVM and proxmox (which also
uses vnc)
The jittery mouse - yes i was rdp-ing to my windows VM to load IE.. ill ty it from a
physical windows machine
With my other question - how would you determine which VM you are "consoling" if
there are more than 1 on a hypervisor.
Cheers
Spyro

maybe ill blow that VM away and create a new one...see if that helps
to cover your first question, yes, spice-xpi works well for me from a
fedora 15 machine using default spice packages of fedora.
you need to set the password to connect to spice (just like for VNC).
since it by default expires after a while, it is called a ticket.
you can use the rest API/SDK/CLI to set the ticket.
as for mouse being jittery in IE - do you happen to use it via an RDP
session (if so, try not to nest clients).
