I have been tearing out the stubble on my head trying to get a spice terminal to open just 'like' vnc terminal window opens. I watched a video where a gentlemen clicked on spice pulldown menu and it opened a terminal window with the desktop of the vm on the guest's desktop. I have installed spice-vdagent, qemu-guest-agent. opened ports on the proxmox and guest firewall
the
Note the above cut'npaste of the dotvv file, there are alot of cr/lf characters (/n) characters in the output of this file. I was told (chatgpt) fwiw, that cr/lf were a no go in this file. Well anyhow. When, I attempt to use virt-viewer I get unable to connect to the graphical server. I know that I am not doing something right. I have attempted multiple options and urls.
So I hope someone can help me out with some troubleshooting steps.
Regards
