s390x minimal+base on openqaworker2 shows the same issue so not only openqaworker5

probably because we updated all of the workers in the meantime - before only openqaworker5 was Leap 42.2

https://openqa.opensuse.org/tests/318252#step/install_and_reboot/16 is pretty convincing on me. Looking at the video https://openqa.opensuse.org/tests/318252/file/video.ogv shows that at some time the screen does not update anymore and then slowly fills up with black artifacts. But the test still continues because the SUT reboots, see https://openqa.opensuse.org/tests/318252#step/install_and_reboot/17

For both tests mentioned in this ticket, there's at least one occurence of considering VNC stalled - turning black which might cause somehow the console to misbehave and not clear correctly the screen...

#14950#note-5 is not the same issue as it seems but rather #14570 instead. I will comment there.
Anyway, as it seems on a current Leap 42.2 machine running a qemu instance and standard "vncviewer" also shows artifacts so it really looks like some issues with vnc on our hosts.

mgriessmeier, did you report a bug about this already? If not, as you stated you have seen this more often, please gather the data for a bug report on what you think might be influencing this, e.g. package versions on the worker OS for Xvnc, vncviewer, qemu, etc.
Updated by mgriessmeier over 7 years ago
no I didn't - actually I didn't see this occur for a while now
Updated by okurz over 7 years ago
- Status changed from New to Resolved
As it is also not mentioned on https://w3.nue.suse.com/~okurz/openqa_suse_de_status.html assumed to be fixed, maybe by any package update on the worker hosts
