All I can get is a black screen if I try to use splice with an Android client. I have read threads where the older versions of ubunta did not work. What about 18.04?. If no what about rdp and if so any setup docs for it?

Thank you.
 
Which Android client are you using? (to satisfy my curiousity ;) )
Do you have the same problem if you use the virt-viewer client on a PC?

By trial and error I found the normal bios does not work with spice. Switching to UEFI fixed the issue instantly. Both PC and Android client (

Opaque oVirt ) work fine now.

I am a new user just trying to figure it all out...

Hope this helps someone else..
regards..
 
Great. Can you please mark the thread as solved? :)
