It's the removal of SPICE from RHEL 9 that I'm referring to. It's upset
a whack of people. The reasons RH eventually gave for deprecating it
didn't make a whole lot of sense to me, especially since SPICE is
superior. It's either cost saving measure or a nudge to everyone to
move to other solutions, including paid options from 3rd parties.
From https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=2030592
Why no SPICE:
1. Due to some license restrictions around H.264 codecs we are not able
to provide a Streaming solution which is needed for modern workloads (as
all drivers are using 3D today). Also vGPU support is not possible
without this.
2. There are quite some 3rd party solutions that already have a proper
implementation (licensed software due to H.264 restrictions unfortunately).
3. For console access and local acceleration VNC is capable of doing the
job - and VNC is also used for OpenStack and KubeVirt and they are both
not interested in using SPICE instead.
Mainly due to (1) and (3) we decided to deprecate our work on SPICE.
I use:
bash -c "GTK_THEME=Adwaita:light remote-viewer spice://127.0.0.1:xxxx"
