Hi,
Probably not an oVirt issue, but maybe someone can help. I've
deployed a
pretty basic VM (ubuntu 14.04 server, 4GB RAM, 4 CPUs, 15GB storage).
Just spitballing here: 14.04 only? Tried 16.04, or any other OS for that matter? For now, it sounds more guest related rather than oVirt.
/K
I tried a vanilla centos-7.1 as well and the same happens. I'm of the same opinion that this is more a guest related issue, it's just I'd like to find out why this only happens with QXL and not with CIRRUS. Thanks.
Each time I install an additional desktop environment (Gnome, KDE, whatever...), CPU usage rises to 100% all time to the extreme that interacting with the machine becomes impossible (maybe a mouse movement is propagated 3 minutes later or so...).
To debug this, I installed LXDE, which is a lightweight desktop environment based on Xorg. I could see there is an Xorg process consuming one of the CPUs and the machine stops responding as far as the desktop environment goes. I have not changed anything in the configuration file.
I could also see this only happens when QXL is chosen as the display driver. When CIRRUS is chosen, everything works smoothly and CPU is ~100% idle. The downside is that we want to use SPICE and CIRRUS won't allow it.
Why does this happen? Is this an OS-side driver issue? Any hint how can it be fixed?
Thanks.
