Hi,

is there any way to disable the PS/2 mouse emulation from command line?

Judging from pc_basic_device_init() and i8042_initfn(): I don't think
so, sorry.


background:

with the ps/2 mouse there are always problems with pointer synchronization. so i generally use usb tablet device emulation. BUT. usb emulation is resource intensive. i have a testcase with 64 VMs on a dual quadcore xeon and usb alone almost uses the resources of 2 cpus. so i decided to introduce an option for 'console-only' vms. but in that case i would like to have ps/2 mouse also disabled in case someone has the wrong option and complains than that his mouse
is unsynchronized. so 'console-only' should be no mouse at all.
