It seems I didn't. After setting it to reasonable values the problem was 
solved for Debian 8 and CentOS 7 (both KDE4).


Fedora 24 and Kubuntu 16.04 (both Plasma 5) stop insisting on 1024x768 
as soon as you choose OS type "RHEL 7x" (no autosizing though).


I never thought this setting could be so important. :)

Thank you very much!

cu,
Uwe

Hi!

Did you set the correct OS type in the VM properties in each test?

[ovirt-users] Linux guests vs. Spice/QXL?

[Uwe Laverenz]

Hi all,

I'm running some tests on OVirt (3.6.5.3) on CentOS 7 and almost 
everything works quite well so far.


CentOS 6.x, Windows 7 and 2008R2 work fine with Spice/QXL, so my setup 
seems to be ok.


Other Linux systems don't work: Debian 8, Fedora 23/24, CentOS 7.x, 
Kubuntu 16.04... CentOS 7.x even kills his X server every time the user 
logs out. X-)


They all have in common that they show a fixed display resolution of 
1024x768 pixels. This can not be changed manually and of course 
automatic display resizing doesn't work either.


All machines have spice-vdagent and ovirt-guest-agent installed and running.

Is this a local problem or is this known/expected behaviour? Is there 
anything I can do to improve this?


thank you,
Uwe
