Hans,
Here are the results of testing I did with and without usbtablet. No usbtablet assumes
spice defaults EG: PS2 mouse
BTW for now I am using a VDSM hook script to enable usbtablet and workaround the issues.

Thanks for this list, it is good to hear that the VDSM hook script helps
as a workaround for you. But I would like to fix this so that things work
without such a workaround. My first guess is that the relative mouse mode
not working is a client issue, hence I was wondering if you could give
some more info about the client machines you're using. And if you're
willing to run some tests with a different client version. If you want
I can do some scratchbuilds for you of the latest client versions
so that you will have RPM's to install (for the Linux clients only).
I have the following questions about the client(s) which you're using:
* Are you using the windows or linux version of spicec /spicy for your testing?
* Which versions? (output rpm -q spice-gtk spice-client would help)
* Can you try building& installing the latest spice (0.10.1) and/or spice-gtk
(0.9) on a Linux client machine and try the spicec / spicy from that and see
if that makes a difference? I just tried a RHEL-5 vm on a RHEL-6.2 host
without the agent and the mouse works fine.
Note I've already tried to reproduce your issue with a RHEL-6 qemu host
and spicec-0.10.1 and spicy-0.9 Linux clients and the relative mouse mode
was working fine with either client.
Thanks & Regards,
Hans

Ok, so you're testing the console under Windows clients? Otherwise this is not all
that relevant, and it would be good to know which Linux version you are using for the
tests.

Ok, some more questions:
* Are you using the windows or linux version of spicec /spicy for your testing?
* Which versions? (output rpm -q spice-gtk spice-client would help)
* Can you try building& installing the latest spice (0.10.1) and/or spice-gtk
(0.9) on a Linux client machine and try the spicec / spicy from that and see
if that makes a difference? I just tried a RHEL-5 vm on a RHEL-6.2 host
without the agent and the mouse works fine.
