[Qemu-devel] [Bug 1730101] [NEW] The guest is only starting after its SDL window gets focus

[Michal Rus]

Public bug reported:

I’m using i3wm and have workspace assigning rules that make QEMU’s SDL
window be assigned to a workspace I don’t really switch to.

When I run start a guest machine, its SDL window is moved to that
workspace (I never see it); but the machine freezes after displaying
that black window. It only starts booting after I switch to the
workspace and view the window.
