The shared clipboard doesn't work for me. How to fix it?
Host (Debian buster) with:
- standard system utilities
- **ufw** (ufw enabled, deny incoming, allow out going, deny routed)
- apparmor-profiles, apparmor-profiles-extra
- stterm
- xserver-xorg-core, xserver-xorg-input-libinput, xinit
- xserver-xorg-video-intel
- jwm
- virt-manager
- /var, /tmp, /var/lib/dpkg, /home are mounted with nodev, noexec, nosuid
- xclip, x11-apps
I add my vm user (non-root) to the libvirt group.
Guest (Debian buster) with:
- standard system utilities
- **ufw** (ufw enabled, deny incoming, allow out going, deny routed)
- apparmor-profiles, apparmor-profiles-extra
- xserver-xorg-core, xserver-xorg-input-libinput, xinit
- **xserver-xorg-video-qxl**
- jwm
- **spice-vdagent**
- xclip, x11-apps
With virt-manager of the host, I set the video to 'qxl' and the display spice to 'spice server'. That is the instruction in section "Enabling SPICE using virt-manager" at https://www.linux-kvm.org/page/SPICE
The "Display Spice" hardware in the "Show virtual hardware details" have the following settings:
Spice Server
------------
type: Spice server
Listen type: Address
Address: Localhost only
Port: [x] Auto (Port:5900)
TLS port: [x] Auto
Since restarting the vm would magically make the "network" hardware disappear, I created another "network" hardware with the gui.
----------------------------
Somehow, within the guest the spice-vdagent doesn't automatically start. I set it to start automatically, following https://unix.stackexchange.com/questions/628158/qemu-kvm-spice-copy-paste-functionalities-work-on-the-windows-vm-but-not-on
But shared clipboard still doesn't work.
----------------------------
In the gui, the "Channel spice" hardware says "State: disconnected". How to connect the channel?
