Hi,

No configuration nor Xinerama should be needed. Just make sure you have
spice-vdagent package installed, spice-vdagentd service running and two
spice-vdagent processes running (one for *dm, one for your user
session). Then enable other monitors in virt-viewer: check View ->
Displays -> Display N.

No Xinerama sounds great!

vdagent was already installed and is running:
$ ps -ef | grep vdagent
root        729      1  0 17:51 ?        00:00:00 /usr/sbin/spice-vdagentd
rkoch      1487      1  0 17:52 ?        00:00:00 /usr/bin/spice-vdagent

When I open a second monitor in virt-viewer it says "Waiting for display 2..." and my vdagent services stops:
$ ps -ef | grep vdagent
root        729      1  0 17:51 ?        00:00:00 /usr/sbin/spice-vdagentd

In /var/log/messages I can see the following:
Apr 8 17:53:07 pc02 kernel: [ 128.497232] input: spice vdagent tablet as /devices/virtual/input/input5 Apr 8 17:53:07 pc02 kernel: input: spice vdagent tablet as /devices/virtual/input/input5
Apr  8 17:53:11 pc02 spice-vdagentd: closed vdagent virtio channel


My vm has now the following settings:
OS: Linux
Optimized for: Desktop
Monitors: 2
Single PCI: activated


Xinerama is an old hackish means to multimonitor for linux guests with
numerou disadvantages so please avoid that. If you really really want to
use xinerama, then switch your OS type to Windows and your VM will get
multiple qxl devices that xinerama depends on.

I don't want to use it and hack in Xorg config files :)

Hi,

I'm trying to virtualize my Fedora 20 workstation on oVirt 3.4 with 2
screens.

No matter if I choose Server or Desktop and operating system Linux or
RHEL 6.x x64 (surprisingly Fedora is missing in the list) my Fedora
guest (or better say LXRandR) only recognizes 1 monitor.

ps -ef | grep myvm shows me that there are 2 monitors (or at least I
think that I can interpret the output this way):
-vga qxl -global qxl-vga.ram_size=134217728 -global
qxl-vga.vram_size=33554432

Does anyone know how I can make my Fedora guest work with 2 screens?
Thanks!
