Description Anton Gubarkov 2016-11-14 18:57:03 UTC

before the upgrade to 3.22 I could press Ctrl-Alt-Del when focused on VM viewer and this key sequnce was processed by the VM. Now Gnome takes over and proposes a host system restart.

I can no longer switch the keyboard layouts in windows guest VM with Alt-Shift. Ctrl-Shift works fine.

The Super (or Windows) key can no longer be process by a VM, always triggers overview in Gnome.

I would try to report this at first to virt-manager upstream as I am unsure it is ready for wayland at all :/

Is this still happening or was fixed with the latest gtk+ version fixing other wayland issues?

Comment 3 Anton Gubarkov 2016-11-30 13:38:19 UTC

This problem stays after gtk+ upgrade.

Can you please test version 1.4.2?

Comment 5 Anton Gubarkov 2017-09-02 13:23:51 UTC

It behaves the same in 1.4.2. 
I can't use Alt-Shift in Windows guest to switch En/Ru keyboards.

Can you please test again with version 2.2.0 (soon in tree)?
