Hi all, I never had a reaction on my email below. I just installed Fedora Server 21 and ran an Android VM on it and connected with a Spice client from a Windows machine. But te result is the same. As soon as the mouse enters the Remote Vieuwe window, the local mouse pointer is gone. Now usually you do want the local mouse pointer to disapear because the remote mouse pointer will be shown. But the Android VM has no local mouse pointer because it is a touch based OS. -- Ralf December 18 2014 9:04 PM, "Ralf" <ralf@xxxxxxx> wrote: > Hi Marc-André, > > Thank you for taking the time to look at this! > > "Marc-André Lureau" <marcandre.lureau@xxxxxxxxx> schreef op 18 december 2014 02:00: > >> Hi >> >> On Tue, Dec 16, 2014 at 12:51 PM, Ralf <ralf@xxxxxxx> wrote: >> >>> I'm using virt-viewer 1.0256 on Windows to connect to a Debian 7.7 Server >>> running qemu-kvm-1.1.2+dfsg-6+deb7u6 and libspice-server1-0.11.0-1+deb7u1 >>> which in turn runs several Virtual Machines. >> >> Ok!
