Mouse pointer gets stuck #2

Closed vmsh0 closed 2 years ago

vmsh0 commented 2 years ago

Every once in a while (can't identify the exact conditions) the mouse pointer gets stuck in a limited area. For example, it becomes impossible to move it to the left of some invisible line. To get it unstuck, it is sufficient to first move it all to the right.

I observed this while connecting to QEMU's integrated VNC server, with a Windows 2000 guest.

The main issue is the mouse driver: https://unix.stackexchange.com/questions/555082

I am not sure this version of Windows supports usb-tablet.

I tried before to fix this on the Fbvnc side. I do not remember the details now; it was not successful.

I confirm this was the issue. Windows 2000 supports USB tablets and, as such, we managed to fix the issue. Thank you for your help!
