[Ubuntu-x-swat] [Bug 1261916] [NEW] Missing letters in spice client session with KVM guest
Public bug reported: Host: Xubuntu 13.04 Guest: Xubuntu 14.04 with qxl graphics When connecting to a KVM guest via Spice client characters are not displayed (in graphical mode), to such extent that messages become unreadable/guest becomes unusable. This bug was reported and kind of resolved for Red Hat/Fedora: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=974198 The mentioned workaround to add kernel parameter nomodeset worked for me up to now. Proposed resolution: Upgrade Debian/Ubuntu package to an up-to-date upstream release.

I tested this bug on Lucid again: I changed /etc/X11/xorg.conf entries back to Option SWcursor false # [bool] Option HWcursor true # [bool] again. The bug doesn't occur anymore.

I just saw that there's a ?? when calling nv_drv.so in the backtrace. But there's no *-dbg package for xserver-xorg-video-nv. If it's of any relevance, could you please point me to some information how to get debug symbols for this driver? -- X crash on start (Xubuntu) https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/460478 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu-X, which is subscribed to xorg-server in ubuntu. ___ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat Post to : ubuntu-x-swat@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
