Spice seems to be doing the trick... Thanks a lot! The tablet isn't removed or changed yet. I'll first do a follow up of the spice before doing that... How do I enable the enlightenment timer feature? I can't seem to find it in the xml-doc's... -----Oorspronkelijk bericht----- Van: Andrey Korolyov [mailto:andrey@xxxxxxx] Verzonden: vrijdag 13 maart 2015 10:59 Aan: Daniel P.

USB tablet is a great problem too for a generated additional workload in idle, though usb3 tablet connection results in much lower cpu consumption than usb2. _______________________________________________ libvirt-users mailing list libvirt-users@xxxxxxxxxx https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/libvirt-users
