[Spice-devel] Dual head issues with Win7 Guests...

[Naga Mohan Pothula]

Hi,

I'm eagerly looking for your suggestions on below issues. Tested with Spice v0.8.1 and Spice-protocol v0.8.0

1.) Currently, Spice Agent/QXL driver doesn't handle Dual head to Single head roaming(ie., Spice client should detect physical monitors and pass info to Vdservice
     and this to QXL driver for Extend/Disconnect displays

2.) Setting max resolution for Guest system displays based on physical monitor resolution.

3.) currently Auto-config is working only for primary display and it should work for secondary display too.


Thanks,
Mohan.

Subject: [Spice-devel] Dual head issues with Win7 Guests...


Hi,

I did setup Dual head environment for Win7 guests with Spice v0.8.1,  and using Qemu v0.14.0. I'm facing few issues with this environment.

1.)  I've noticed Secondary display is disconnected by default. I'm trying to Extend /Disconnect Displays at win7 Guest based on physical monitors info. at client.
      Could anyone give info for achieving this.(I'm thinking vdservice needs to be used for this to pass IOCTLs to QXL driver as roaming of Single head to Dual head and vice versa happens frequently ).

2.) Currently, user is allowed to choose incompatible resolution ie., choosing resolution greater than resolution supported by physical monitor. 
     I have plan setting max resolution for Primary and Secondary displays based on resolution supported by Primary and Secondary monitors. 

Can anyone please provide approaches for doing above two scenarios?


  
Thanks,
Mohan.
