1:30 a.m.
This time I tried to use "spice html5 browser client". I downloaded the cert
from http://<my-engine>/ovirt-engine/ca.crt. This time the console window "
spice javascript client" showed up in the firefox (24.2.0) but it stays gray. Nothing
can be seen.
So what else am I missing here?

IE11 doesn't really work as of now.
Try some more reasonable browser, IE10 would be also fine.
activex setup requires some manual work as mentione at
How_to_Connect_to_SPICE_Console_With_Portal wiki
native invocation (that file to download you got) is easier, just associate with
recent remote viewer and it should open
it works on Windows, Linux and OSX (needs https://github.com/brianwcook/launchvv
in addition)
check out http://www.ovirt.org/Console_Client_Resources
