<div dir="ltr"><div>Any thoughts/feedback on this one? It really is a downer to be forced to manipulate both of these via hooks. These are both pretty standard configuration items to enhance/tweak or make various guests fully functional.<br>

Allow for a usbtablet input device to be enabled and used. Perhaps via the console configuration UI for a VM in the admin and user portals.<br>-Highly useful in the event that a guest OS does not have the spice agent loaded nor is it available for said guest OS.<br>
-Also in the case of guest OS that simply does not want to work and play well with <input type='mouse' bus='ps2'><br>- All Operating systems since ~1998 understand <input type='tablet' bus='usb'/> and will deal with mouse events in absolute mode.</p>

Allow for vram and vram_ size to be configurable for CIrrus(VNC) and QXL(Spice) console types. Again probably best suited to have this on console configuration UI for a VM in the admin and user portals.<br>- Default VRAM sizes are not enough to allow for larger resolutions and pixel depths at times.<span> </span><br>
- Especially the case in multiple monitor SPICE, fullscreen, or VNC consoles</p><p style="text-indent:0px;letter-spacing:normal;font-variant:normal;text-align:start;font-style:normal;font-weight:normal;line-height:normal;color:rgb(34,34,34);text-transform:none;font-size:13px;white-space:normal;font-family:arial,sans-serif;word-spacing:0px">
- More VRAM is useful in the case of attempting to run accelerated applications within a QXL configured guest. <br></p><p dir="ltr" style="text-indent:0px;letter-spacing:normal;font-variant:normal;text-align:start;font-style:normal;font-weight:normal;line-height:normal;color:rgb(34,34,34);text-transform:none;font-size:13px;white-space:normal;font-family:arial,sans-serif;word-spacing:0px">
The above can be altered via VDSM hooks however this is rather painful. Additionally these options or similar are configurable in other competing solutions.<br></p><p dir="ltr" style="text-indent:0px;letter-spacing:normal;font-variant:normal;text-align:start;font-style:normal;font-weight:normal;line-height:normal;color:rgb(34,34,34);text-transform:none;font-size:13px;white-space:normal;font-family:arial,sans-serif;word-spacing:0px">
