I’d like to start from konsole a virt-viewer to vm1 on screen vga1 and another virt-viewer to vm2 on screen lvds1.

Anyone knows if this is possible with KDE on a CentOS 6.5?

Thanks Patrick

  • Hello,

    I have used Devilspie for this in Gnome2, but not sure if it’s compatible with KDE.

  • In KDE you can force the position, size, fullscreen etc based on the window properties: class title, etc. you can access the options by clicking right mouse button on the window title and selecting “Advanced->Special Window Settings…”

    you can memorize the positioning for your windows one in screen 0 and the other in screen
    1 and after that start the virt-viewer with the -f option to force full screen – each window will go fullscreen in it’s screen

    Great, I thought it would take the same position for every virt-viewer but it remembers the vm too. Thanks a lot Patrick
