Summary: a feature is not working: copy/paste works initially as expected but then fails.
Kubuntu 18.04 host and various other Ubuntu 18.04 and 18.10 flavors as guest. I don't see any slowdown but copy/paste initially works between host and guest (either way) and then stops working altogether - between host and guest and - just in the guest and - just in the host. I have to shut down the VM to be able to copy/paste again in the host. Seems very similar to https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/spice/linux/vd_agent/issues/9 but without the freezes reported there. $ apt policy qemu-kvm qemu-kvm: Installed: 1:2.11+dfsg-1ubuntu7.9 Candidate: 1:2.11+dfsg-1ubuntu7.9 $ apt policy virt-manager virt-manager: Installed: 1:1.5.1-0ubuntu1.1 Candidate: 1:1.5.1-0ubuntu1.1 /var/log/syslog has Feb 24 14:03:23 kububb spice-vdagent[1508]: Cannot access vdagent virtio channel /dev/virtio-ports/com.redhat.spice.0 as the only spice-related entry. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to spice-vdagent in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1800196 Title: spice-vdagent[1345]: Cannot access vdagent virtio channel /dev/virtio- ports/com.redhat.spice.0 Status in spice-vdagent package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Bug description: Hello, $ journalctl -b [...] oct 26 07:26:57 romanescu spice-vdagent[1345]: Cannot access vdagent virtio channel /dev/virtio-ports/com.redhat.spice.0 Best regards, -- Cristian Aravena Romero (caravena) ProblemType: Bug DistroRelease: Ubuntu 18.10 Package: spice-vdagent 0.17.0-1ubuntu2 Uname: Linux 4.19.0-gnu x86_64 ApportVersion: 2.20.10-0ubuntu13 Architecture: amd64 CurrentDesktop: ubuntu:GNOME Date: Fri Oct 26 14:34:00 2018 InstallationDate: Installed on 2017-10-13 (378 days ago) InstallationMedia: Ubuntu 17.10 "Artful Aardvark" - Alpha amd64 (20170926) SourcePackage: spice-vdagent UpgradeStatus: No upgrade log present (probably fresh install) To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/spice-vdagent/+bug/1800196/+subscriptions -- Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~desktop-packages Post to : desktop-packages@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~desktop-packages More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
