hopefully that file will be small (you only need a few seconds of
capture for the key presses and virt-manager spice connection, i.e.
window open). compress it if it's too large.
Dear Alon,

I have placed the results here:

http://server.intellitech.gr/spice.cap

It does look like a binary file. Is it supposed to be this way?
Yes. Actually the file ending should have been pcap. It's a standard
format for network captures which I can read with wireshark with the
spice dissector and look for the key presses, just trying to figure out
if it's a problem at the client side or server/qemu side.

Sorry, wrong conclusion, it's probably spice but you didn't start the
capture *before* the virt-manager connection.

Perhaps an easier way to achieve that would be:

destroy the vm. (stop it from virt-manager)
start the capture (tcpdump -i ...)
start the vm.
do some key presses where you can see they don't have any affects.
stop the capture.
compress it this time - will save on the transport:
  bzip2 spice.cap

Thanks,
Alon

Dear Alon,

The VM runs on a headless pc, that I access through VNC.
I did the following:

a) Installed wireshark, run as root (couldn't manage to run it as a normal user, even after adding the user to the wireshark group - perhaps a selinux denial).
b) Started capture on lo. I waited for a while, nothing got captured.
c) I started virt-manager, and then started the VM. Nothing captured.
d) I displayed the VM in virt-manager viewer, and capture started. I waited until the capture log stopped having new entries.
e) I verified that each time I move the mouse, packets were captured.
f) I verified that when I press keys, again packets are logged.

I have saved the capture from inside wireshark here: http://server.intellitech.gr/spice.cap.bz2

Towards the end of the capture, is only key presses, and the mouse movement outside the VM viewer, to stop capturing.

I haven't managed to find the spice dissector in wireshark (I got through yum).

Regards,

George
