For Jonathon, the part that I had trouble with was adding “heads =
‘4’" to the video / QXL configuration. I don’t see it documented in
https://www.spice-space.org/spice-user-
manual.html#_multiple_monitor_support.
Yep, it's a fairly new feature. I'm working on additional multi-monitor 
documentation and will be sure to include that.
Yep, we totally missed it when 'heads' support was added :( virt-manager
UI needs to be able to set this too..


        
For Christophe F, what I get with the configuration file http://paste
bin.com/FEXbjaE3 is shown in the following picture https://redskincat
.wordpress.com/2017/02/27/learning-more-about-mesa/#jp-carousel-1224.
As far as I remember, this is pretty much a default configuration of
Fedora 25 after install from the live CD. If I understand correctly,
the difference with you is that I actually installed.

Does anybody else see this? If not, what could be wrong with my
setup?

I don't see anything obviously wrong with the configuration. If you
close the spice client and immediately re-connect does it still show
the same thing in both windows?

Can you capture the debug output of running virt-viewer with the --
debug and --spice-debug options while you enable the second monitor?
That might give a clue about what's happening.
Also, what window manager are you using on the client? The window
decorations don't look like default GNOME setup? The linux client is
running on bare-metal, not in an osx VM?

I'm having similar issue here (fed 25 guest), and even worse :/,

Good to know I’m not hallucinating or heisenbugging ;-)

when
i set up the 2 displays as primary and secondary it starts by showing both
displays as secondary (2) but when i move the mouse towards the
menu both are becoming primary (1) , and it keeps jumping between 1<->2

Towards which menu? I don’t think I have tried this operation. If I can bring Muse back up, I can try this.


I tried both x11 and wayland on the fedora 25 guest - same issue, but works
well with fedora 24 guest

So this would be a problem with QXL more than with virt-viewer?

Christophe
