After commit df42f78d46 "remote-viewer: factor our remote_viewer_initial_connect()", the initial connection code only gets run in the !ovirt case. When ovirt is in use, the initial connection never happens, meaning all we get when using ovirt:// is a blank virt-viewer window. This commit fixes that by moving creation of the ovirt session to remote_viewer_initial_connect, and unconditionnally calling the remote_viewer_initial_connect rather than only doing it in the !ovirt case. https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1655537 Signed-off-by: Christophe Fergeau <cfergeau@redhat.com>
Virt Viewer
Virt Viewer provides a graphical viewer for the guest OS display. At this time is supports guest OS using the VNC or SPICE protocols. Further protocols may be supported in the future as user demand dictates. The viewer can connect directly to both local and remotely hosted guest OS, optionally using SSL/TLS encryption.
Virt Viewer is the GTK3 application. Virt Viewer 3.0 was the last release that supported GTK2.
Virt Viewer uses the GTK-VNC (>= 0.4.0) widget to provide a display of the VNC protocol, which is available from
https://wiki.gnome.org/Projects/gtk-vnc
Virt Viewer uses the SPICE-GTK (>= 0.35) widget to provide a display of the SPICE protocol, which is available from:
https://www.spice-space.org/download.html
Use of either SPICE-GTK or GTK-VNC can be disabled at time
of configure, with --without-gtk-vnc
or --without-spice-gtk
respectively.
Virt Viewer uses libvirt to lookup information about the guest OS display. This is available from
Further information about the Virt Viewer application can be found on the Virt Manager website:
