Re: [Qemu-devel] vnc patch
-usbdevice tablet emulates a absolute position USB HID device instead of a PS/2 mouse, so there is no need for messy mouse calibration when using VNC. It also allows you to get rid of the need to have the SDL version 'grab' the mouse.

Re: [Qemu-devel] vnc patch
Eric, is it possible to tweak something to fix the mouse issue? Because under w2k my mouse is completely out of sync... I tried disabling mouse acceleration like I read on the list but that didn't help...

This will eliminate the acceleration problem for guests with support. Search the mailing list for more information.

Re: [Qemu-devel] VNC patch status?
Thanks, I'll look into CVS. My primary use for it is being able to access Linux VM consoles - although I'm curious as to the mouse issues other folk are mentioning - is it a Win98 specific issue?

[Qemu-devel] VNC patch status?

They have grafted on their own graphics driver and load a little applet that keeps the mouse perfectly synchronised. It works well over vnc.
