Subject: virt-viewer: on GRUB command line =-sign not supported Package: virt-viewer Version: 0.0.3-2 Severity: normal
*** Please type your report below this line *** Dear Debian folks, thanks for packaging this great piece of software. I am using KVM and with virt-manager and virt-viewer I set up a system using the debian-testing-i386-businesscard.iso from April 28th and installed unstable and chose GRUB 2. update-grub -y failed though, chose without bootloader and therefore rebooting I was dropped into the GRUB 1.96 command line. Wanting to specify the root file system an equal-sign (=) is needed (root=/dev/…). Unfortunately I cannot enter this sign. I use a German keyboard and GRUB wants US-American layout. I tried all keys and = should be on `-key (German). Hitting this key nothing showed up on the GRUB command line in the virtual machine. In other windows it is working. I did not find anything relating to this on the WWW. Thanks a lot, Paul -- System Information: Debian Release: squeeze/sid APT prefers unstable APT policy: (500, 'unstable'), (1, 'experimental') Architecture: i386 (x86_64) Kernel: Linux 2.6.29-1-amd64 (SMP w/2 CPU cores) Locale: LANG=de_DE.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=de_DE.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/bash Versions of packages virt-viewer depends on: ii libc6 2.9-8 GNU C Library: Shared libraries ii libglib2.0-0 2.20.1-1 The GLib library of C routines ii libgtk-vnc-1.0-0 0.3.8-2 A VNC viewer widget for GTK+ (runt ii libgtk2.0-0 2.16.1-2 The GTK+ graphical user interface ii libvirt0 0.6.2-2 library for interfacing with diffe ii libxml2 2.7.3.dfsg-1 GNOME XML library virt-viewer recommends no packages.
