Synopsis
new package: spice-vdagent
Type/Severity
Product Enhancement Advisory
Red Hat Insights patch analysis
Identify and remediate systems affected by this advisory.
Topic
A new spice-vdagent package is now available for Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6.
Description
The new spice-vdagent package provides a SPICE agent for Linux guests.
This update fixes the following bugs:
- The new spice-vdagent package allows for client window mode, automatic X
session resolution adjustment to the client resolution, and copy and paste
support for text and images between a guest's active X session and the
SPICE client operating system. (BZ#658464)
- guest resolutions were not automatically aligned when multiple monitors
were used. This update corrects the monitor settings. Now, the vdagent
automatically aligns the guest resolution for one and more monitors.
(BZ#680227)
All SPICE virtual machines users should install this new package, which
adds these features. Note: guests must be rebooted after installing this
package for the changes to take effect.
Solution
Before applying this update, make sure all previously-released errata
relevant to your system have been applied.
This update is available via the Red Hat Network. Details on how to
