I'm seeing almost the same behavior in an 8.04.4 guest on a 10.04 host. The mouse pointer movement in the guest was ABYSMALLY slow until I edited /etc/X11/xorg.conf to use 'mouse' instead of 'vmmouse'. After doing that and restarting X, mouse performance inside the guest matched that of the host. I lost the ability to seamlessly transition between the virt-manager window and the host, but this is a minor convenience. Having the mouse pointer move in conjunction with my physical mouse is a necessity.
I did not notice the high CPU usage that others are reporting in this bug. -- [lucid kvm-qemu]High cpu usage when moving mouse https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/553081 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu-X, which is subscribed to xserver-xorg-input-vmmouse in ubuntu. _______________________________________________ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat Post to : ubuntu-x-swat@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
