Public bug reported:
[Impact]
* When running a Windows VM using the QXL driver from [1] the display
is inverted and therefore almost unusable.
[Test Case]
* Launch a Windows VM with a QXL display (I used Win2k16 running under
libvirt).
* Start websockify
sudo apt install python3-websockify && websockify 5959 localhost:5900
* Run a HTTP server to spice-html5:
cd /usr/share/spice-html5 && python -m SimpleHTTPServer
* Open a browser and go to http://localhost:8000
* Enter
host: localhost
port: 5959
* Click start
Expected behaviour:
Guest UI is displayed correctly.
Actual behaviour:
Guest UI gets inverted on refresh.
[Regression Potential]
* This component may be used with openstack and it's possible that
there are workarounds in place, so they may start working incorrectly.
[Other Info]
* This is fixed from cosmic onwards (spice-html5 0.1.7-3).
