When I maximize the window of virt-manager, the VM does not expand to take up the space. It is also at a low resolution.
I have View/Scale Display set to “Always” , and the “Auto resize VM” option is checked, and greyed out.
In the guest, I installed spice guest tools and virtio-win-guest-tools, and enabled the services.
I can auto-resize this same virtual disk successfully when I run it on a debian-based distro.
On the EOS host, I have qemu-full
installed.
This is my xml:
