Re: [Users] [Spice-devel] mouse problem with muiltiple monitors (was HowTo: Spice ActiveX Plugin/Virt Viewer Console on oVirt 3.1)

I've actually started to notice that this occurs natively as well (I rarely if ever use the activex console on a native windows install). However I have noted that with a Native Windows install and the Activex Remote Viewer version 0.5.3 that alot of guests have mouse issues w/o spice vdagent or the windows spice agent in place (very annoying during LFC guests with no knowledge of "spice mice"). Windows installs can be slipstreamed with the spice drivers to fix this but thats really a pain. Linux guests however not as easy. This actually seems to a repeat of this issue: http://lists.ovirt.org/pipermail/users/2012-February/000351.html (for which a fix was applied to windows spicec + activex NOT remote-viewer) possible regression? Using the usbtablet custom vdsm hook does indeed solve issues with guests that encounter this issue. I have noted it within older linux guests (no surprise they know nothing of a spice mouse), windows guests, solaris guests, some of the older opensuse and ubuntu as well as fedora. The most confusing one was RHEL 6.x which without the spice vdagent loaded will experience the cursor jumping in and out of the window or randomly on the spice display. I note the one downside of the usbtablet is that power users are able to view custom hooks in the PUP UI, but cannot set them as only the "admin role" not "user role" can do this. That is to say the power user can look at and even set the hook but is stopped short of committing it to the VM settings. - DHC On Fri, Oct 5, 2012 at 5:18 AM, Christophe Fergeau <cfergeau(a)redhat.com&gt;wrote:
