Hans - is there any downside/conflict if usbtablet is passed when local mouse/agent is
used?
if not, we could pass usbtablet when booting a guest not known to have the agent
installed from previous run?
Yes, for most guests (*) this will cause a significant CPU load even when fully idle (USB
emulation
causes a 1000 vm-exits / sec). We just need to figure out why the relative mouse mode is
working
so poorly for Chris and fix it.
* For guests that don't do USB powermanagement for USB HID devices, which is almost
all of them
since many many real world HID devices are just too buggy. In recent Linux versions there
are
udev rules to recognize the qemu tablet, and in that case enable USB powermanagement, but
AFAIK
all other guests pay a 1000 vm-exits / sec price, which causes a couple of percents of CPU
usage
on the host per vm.

Hans
