I don't see how this is a duplicate of bug #823494 seeing as that bug was marked as fixed many months ago and only applies to the QXL driver, and with this bug I was only using the VGA driver.
There have also been several other bug postings of similar blank screen problems with the kvm-spice binary, so even if this is a duplicate bug it clearly isn't fixed.
