Hi Tomas,
Thanks for the help. Installing the from github as you suggested looks
to get me closer. I first uninstalled both aSPICE and bVNC that I'd
installed from the play store. It now appears that moVirt is starting
aSPICE at least, but now I'm confronted with "Unable to connect or
authenticate, please check server address, password and cert authority
and subject." Is this because I have moVirt using https for the
connection? (I see the moVirt README mentions: *Note* moVirt/aSPICE
does not support SPICE secured connections at the moment!) If that's
the case, I guess I'll live w/o consoles on my phone for now. I'd
rather not send my ovirt admin password in plain-text since that'd be
like providing physical access to every one of my critical VMs -- but
maybe I'm just interpreting that note wrongly.
