Hi, We noticed that GUI since SL7.2 did not work with the low resolution 1024x768 which is the default-detected resolution from SmartOS vnc server. Is there a way to configure the vnc to run in higher resolution like 1280x1024? And I don't need to hack Linux to forcedly run in higher resolution.
BTW, is spice stable enough on SmartOS? Thanks.
