There are many different issues that can arise when setting up Looking Glass. Below is a list of known issues with potential solutions:

When Launching Looking Glass the Desktop Doesn't Appear

Scroll Wheel Scrolls in the Same Direction Regardless of Rotation

The Clipboard is not Working

  • Did you enable it?
  • Did you install the Spice Guest Tools?
    • Before you can Copy/Paste content between the Guest and the Host you must install the SPICE Guest Tools driver. The download is labeled as "spice-guest-tools".
      • NOTE: Do make sure that you do NOT install the QEMU Guest Tools Driver. These are not the same.
  • Are you using Wayland?
    • Clipboard functionality is not compatible with Wayland. If you are using it you need to disable it for the clipboard to work.
