I did some more extensive testing tonight to see how many guests would have issues with a SPICE based console. This testing was specifically during guest OS install time.
Here is the list and the results - Red Hat 7.3 --> Mouse unusable - Red Hat 9 --> Mouse unusable - Fedora core 1 - 14 --> Mouse unusable
These are all past there EOL, also see my remark below which certainly applies to these.
- Fedora core 15 Mouse useable - Fedora core 16 Mouse useable - Red Hat Enterprise 3.x --> Mouse unusable - Red Hat Enterprise 4.x --> Mouse unusable - Red Hat Enterprise 5.x --> Mouse unusable - Red Hat Enterpise 6.x --> Mouse useable - SLES 10 --> Mouse unusable - SLES 11 --> Mouse unusable - SLES 11 SP1 --> Mouse unusable - OpenSUSE 11.1 --> Mouse unusable - OpenSUSE 11.2 --> Mouse useable - OpenSUSE 11.3 --> Mouse useable - OpenSUSE 11.4 --> Mouse useable
Looking at the above list it sounds to me like you had the usb-tablet enabled in the vm config, that is not a good idea for Linux versions which have an xorg which does not support device hotplug. May I suggest that you re-run the tests without the usb-tablet enabled? This may also help with the problems with other operating systems. Regards, Hans
