Hi,

How do I get my clipboard to work with Virtual Machine
Viewer 0.6.0?

Scientific Linux 6.6, x64

rpm -qa \*kvm\*
qemu-kvm-0.12.1.2-2.445.el6.x86_64


You need to have the Spice agent running in the guest, see the manual
for more details:

Hi Marc-André,

Huh.  The clipboard worked fine when I was using SPICEc.
I will double check your link to see if I missed anything.

I will report back.

Many thanks,

Okay,  I now have an "unknown" device in my XP
device manager called "vport0p1".  I have tried
all the drivers in

C:\Program Files\SPICE Guest Tools\drivers\winxp\x86

And XP rejects all of them.  My favorite guess was "VirtIO-
Serial Communications device --> VirtIO-Serial Driver"
But that was rejected by XP immediately.

I am using

    virtio-win-0.1.100
    spice-guest-tools-0.74.exe

I do believe if I can get vport0p1's driver to install,
I will get my clipboard back.  Anyone know what I
am doing wrong?

Error code is "could not start" code 10.


Try uninstalling the driver  and re-installing it (preferably removing
the driver in c:\windows\... and rebooting after each step).
I'd try installing the wxp/x86/vioser.inf driver from virtio-win-0.1.100
(in qemu monitor: change ide1-cd0 virtio-win-0.1-100.iso, and then
  in device-manager browse and choose that path)

Also make sure your qemu-kvm command line options for virtio-serial
device are correct.

Uri.


Hi Uri,

Thank you for helping me with this.

Got it figured out.

1)  I am not finding an entry in Add/Remove Programs for
Spice Guest Tools or anything Red Hat for that matter.

I did find a shortcut in my programs menu called
     Uninstall SPICE Guest Tools

which points to a non-existant
     Uninstall-spice-guest-tools.exe

There is an "Uninstall vert-view.exe" in the
directory as the Uninstall-spice-guest-tools.

Running the other name give a pop up announcing it
is the Spice Guest Tools Uninstall Wizard,
so it must be the right one.  I will report this to
Red Hat on their Bugzilla:

https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1200583

And, it leaves the Program Files directory there.
I added that to the bug report.



2) This problem is isolated to XP, so on a hunch,
I uninstalled (manually removing the Program Files
directory)
      spice-guest-tools-0.74.exe
and reinstalled
      spice-guest-tools-0.52.exe

This time in device manager, I got the same two
"virt-Serial Driver", one with a bang mark.

But this time, updating the one with the bang mark from
    C:\Program Files\SPICE Guest Tools\drivers\winxp\x86

loaded a different driver called
     virt-Serial Driver Raw PDO

And it neglected to prompt for a reboot.  After a
reboot the clipboard work fine.

So, I am reporting it to Red Hat as well:
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1200592


You guys deserve combat pay for working on this stuff day
in and day out!

-T
