Category: intel Group: None Status: Open Resolution: None Priority: 5 Private: No Submitted By: Michael Mair-Keimberger (d3vi0n) Assigned to: Nobody/Anonymous (nobody) Summary: strange mouse behavior when connecting to kvm-sesion via vnc Initial Comment: I've a few running kvm-sessions on my server (fedora, ubuntu and winxp). I can connect to them via vnc which i enabled in kvm (via kvm -vnc). The problem is that the mouse in a kvm-window is never there where it should be. This is really annoying because, for example if i try to press the start button (in windows), most of the time my mouse is already out of the window. I always have to "play" with the mouse to reach the button. Generally its with everything i do in windows with the mouse. Its the same with the other linux-oses. It seems it depends on which point i jump into the window. Also the mouse distance between the local mouse and the mouse in windows changes while i move the mouse in windows. I already made an bug-report on bugs.kde.org, because i though it's the fault with krdc (which is my vnc client), but i have the same issue with other clients too.
