[SOLVED] 14.2: virt-manager blank screen: Spice + QXL [Logs and Screenshot]

Freaksta · 02-04-2016, 07:54 PM

Hello,

I am trying to run a Windows 10 ISO to install windows 10.

Slackware 14.2 BETA 2

Setup a VM with virt-manager and am using QXL + SPICE.

When I run the machine, I see memory and CPU usage, but I get just a blank, grey screen for the console. No text (after the initial text) and no console for windows. No 'press any key to boot from cd' or anything like that.

Please see two attached files:

Looks like this is a bug between GTK3 and pygobject
