Re: [Users] Can't open ovirt console using Spice or VNC - help!
Ah sorry. The vm guest is CentOS 6.4 or 6.5 depending in the ISO image used. Yes graphics driver package. I have virt-viewer on my CentOS vm running on my Mac. It works, but the Mac mouse is unusable when installing CentOS on the guest using remote-viewer. I have another machine running native CentOS. But remote-viewer won't launch because it can't connect to the graphics server. I'm guessing it's missing some drivers. Thanks for the help!

Of course it couldn't, I don't expose that host name outside the ovirt network. I was on my wireless network. Once I plugged into the ovirt net it worked. Duh! Do you know of any spice graphic packages that don't need to be compiled? remote-viewer from virt-viewer package is the client you want. David Cheers!

Re: [Users] Can't open ovirt console using Spice or VNC - help!
I did not see that and it works, thank you! Looks like I need some UI driver help though. Running the script actually helped me get to the root cause... Can't access the host name error. Of course it couldn't, I don't expose that host name outside the ovirt network. I was on my wireless network. Once I plugged into the ovirt net it worked. Duh! Do you know of any spice graphic packages that don't need to be compiled? Cheers!
